Nostalgia & History > Nightcrawler Train Order Tues. - No. 30 8/28/63Date: 09/30/14 14:16 Nightcrawler Train Order Tues. - No. 30 8/28/63 Author: terrybaker The "Nightcrawler" thread below helped me decide which train orders to post today. I believe the set to be complete from Laurel MT to Denver for Train No. 30 departing Billings 8/28/63; I was on this train and the conductors saved the orders for me. This is the Burlington that I like to remember.

A good object lesson in the complexities of railroad operation even on a fairly low density line such as this.

How many slow orders does BNSF have today on this route? BSB |
