Western Railroad Discussion > Weekend Action On The BNSF Northern Transcon-MRL 4316

It was a cold foggy drippy day in Ritzville, WA on the BNSF Lakeside Sub. The high-low was 38-35 with .10 of drips. Pinched nerve in the shoulder still there, but was able to post today, keeping pictures to a minimum.. Hoping pain goes away soon. Traffic is at 31 trains since midnight with more on the way. Here are some of the trains from today amd one from yesterday.

Thanks Christina!

Larry

The weather stunk but they gave you some great variety to shoot between paint schemes and locomotive models.   Thanks as usual for sharing with us here.
 
Get well!

Thanks everyone!
