Western Railroad Discussion > Hazardous Smoke Continues On The BNSF Lakeside SubDate: 09/13/20 15:55 Hazardous Smoke Continues On The BNSF Lakeside Sub Author: Ritzville It was another very hazardous smoke day in Ritzville, WA On the BNSF Northern Transcon with a high-low of 74-53. Sun has been completely obliterated, making for cool temps. The smoke will be here for another two day before a cold front rolls thru the area. Sure do need a mask when taking pictures. Traffic is at 20 trains since midnight. The monitor does not show any trains at the moment. Might be getting ready for the bridge replacement on the Falbridge Sub. Here are some trains from today and a few from yesterday.
9/12/2020 Some pictures will have the smoke filtered, others will be smoky. 1. Grab shot of EB 409pm manifest train with BNSF 4272 on the point of 5 units with DPU. 2. WB 443pm garbage/manifest train with BNSF 3931-7543 on the pull with no DPU. 3. WB 504pm grain train with BNSF 6283-7415 on the point with DPU. Edited 1 time(s).

Larry Ritzville, WA Date: 09/13/20 20:04 Re: Hazardous Smoke Continues On The BNSF Lakeside Sub Author: SCKP187 Nice photos and a big bunch of neat trains---looks pretty toxic though. Hope this can clear up for you soon.
Brian Stevens Date: 09/13/20 22:14 Re: Hazardous Smoke Continues On The BNSF Lakeside Sub Author: cookdb3 Hi Larry, I heard on news about massive bushfires in Calfornia and Orgeon and it looks very bad and terrible, as we had one like this in Sydney NSW last Christmas and New Year. So I am hoping that we wont have other massive bushfires here in next summer season. Okay, thanks again for sharing.
Regards, Barry Cook Yass NSW Australia. Date: 09/13/20 22:34 Re: Hazardous Smoke Continues On The BNSF Lakeside Sub Author: Ritzville Thanks Brian and Barry! The fires on the West Coast have been terrible as were the fires in Australia last Chriistmas. Will be glad when smoke finally clears.
