BNSF symbol U-ALTBAR1-13M. Photos and video in Plano TX. 05/13/2021 There is one more scheduled > U-ALTBAR1-15M Edited 1 time(s). Last edit at 05/13/21 15:46 by KB5WK.

IF not, wonder where it originated? The U symbol shown should be the BNSF symbol out of Alliance? Seems like the KCS symbol would be different?

Thanks for the posting. ALLEN Date: 05/13/21 20:39 Re: KCS military train to California Author: miralomarail It does Not get unloaded in Barstow, it goes to the Union Pacific then to Yermo and the USMC Base and the US Army Rail Head , where Army units break up the train and move it to unloading ramps . After that the Heavy equipment is loaded on Flatbed Trucks or moved in a Convoy out to The National Training Center . To bad the Army has no track direct to Fort Irwin .
