That would explain the BNSF stack train of JB Hunt 53 ft containers on the CN Leithton Sub going north at 1945 today through Plainfield. The BNSF stack trains here are normally only international boxes going to LPC from Eola.

I suspect this is on the Transcon but it's hard to tell from the photos.  Thanks for the link.
