Sunday on Yellow Bank curve.
Author: hank

On a cold dry day in December 2006, I made a before sunrise hike to Yellow Bank curve MP 251.5 on the BNSF Marceline sub.  With barely enough light for video, I captured this westbound BNSF Z train.  Likely the Willow Springs, Illinois to Stockton, California.

Tjanks for viewing.

Nice video with all trailers and mostly clean power.... Worth the effort to shoot it!

Good video Ron, thanks for posting.  And congrats on Video of the Day.  I don't think crews miss the 89 foot pig cars that much.  They were the source of a lot of UDE's I've heard.

100 percent solid tree growth now. Impossible photo now on the third district, along with many other locations.
