Western Railroad Discussion > Nighttime empty coal train led by solo EMD SD70ACe w/ funky hornDate: 01/24/23 20:37 Nighttime empty coal train led by solo EMD SD70ACe w/ funky horn Author: jmulhol2 A 1x2 American Crystal Sugar 130-car empty eastbound (geographically southbound) coal unit train from Grand Forks, ND (specifically to Ardoch, ND) --to-- Spring Creek Mine, MT is seen here passing MP96 on the BNSF Hillsboro Subdivision in Grand Forks, ND during the windy and cold nighttime hours of 01/24/2023. Note the funky style horn on the solo EMD SD70ACe leader -- weird and a bit eerie to hear on this blustery and chilly evening.
Train symbol: E-GFASCM Power: BNSF #8767 (EMD SD70ACe; built: 05/2013) x BNSF #9008 (EMD SD70ACe; built: 09/2013) BNSF #5969 (GE ES44AC; built: 04/2006) You must be a registered subscriber to watch videos.
