Western Railroad Discussion > Headed westbound for a fresh load of Powder River Basin coal...Date: 07/31/21 15:08 Headed westbound for a fresh load of Powder River Basin coal... Author: jmulhol2 A trusty pair of EMD SD70ACe's, BNSF #8441 and #9370, power a speedy westbound empty coal train in a 1x1 configuration through Percival, IA, on BNSF's Napier Subdivision during "golden hour" of 07/27/2021.

Thanks for sharing your good photo work with us here. Date: 07/31/21 20:52 Re: Headed westbound for a fresh load of Powder River Basin coal. Author: jmulhol2 This track was emaculate! Also, thank you very much for your kind words!

(Photo 1 image of the day) They are both very nice. Date: 08/01/21 08:26 Re: Headed westbound for a fresh load of Powder River Basin coal. Author: ntharalson Indeed, nice photos, thanks for posting. Maybe it would be wise to note that while this train is "railroad" westbound, it is actually traveling northward toward Pacific Junction, Iowa, where it will take a left turn, head west across the Missouri River to Lincoln, thence Alliance and on to the mines. Just a minor point.
