Western Railroad Discussion > Tank Train Thursday . . .

1.     Traffic was pretty slow today on the UP Wagoner Sub.  A couple hours of roaming the property only turned up this mt ethanol UP 7787-6643-7256 at South Coffeyville OK with instructions from Coffeyville KS yardmaster  mainline and tie the train down.

2.     Back on November 1 2019 CP 8073 leads an mt oil train east out of Kellyville OK.  These trains go back to North Dakota or Canada--not sure--quite rare that I can catch something other than a BNSF leader and is certainly a nice change of pace to see the foreign power.

Thanks for looking

Like shot 2 Brian, good catch.   Ben

Glad you were able to catch two good looking trains Brian.

Larry

Great looking shot of the CP!

Love the composition in image #2. Sorta makes that CP unit look "larger than life"... ;^)

Lance

Good pair.
JB

Nice shots both!

Who'd a thought there would ever be CP power passing through Kellyville??  Nice catch of a pair on the point.

Nice catch in the CP power. Those trains carry Canadian crude to Cushing. The BNSF symbols are U-NOYSAP and U-SAPNOY
These will disappear if/when Keystone XL pipeline is ever finished

Maybe, maybe not. There are already predictions that the new pipeleine will be at capacity as soon as it's open.
