Some of Sunday's Action on the BNSF plus Second Section Traction
Author: Ritzville

It was a cool breezy sunny day in Ritzville, WA on the BNSF Lakeside Sub. The high-low was 51-30 with the cool temps to continue. Traffic is at 24 trains since midnight with 14 before enough sunlight. Here are some trains from today and a couple from yesterday with some nostalgic traction. Also caught the lucky BNSF 777 today.
