BNSF 7315
Title:  BNSF 7315
Description:  BNSF 7315 - now this is confusing - I swore she had already gone through the wye from that direction - but with a string of empty double-stack well cars. Its like deja vu all over again - but, wait, those are empty garbage scow containers, not empty well cars. Huh, turns out her sister 7316 had pass through within the hour or so on nearly those same tracks... also in second place. Anyway, _this_ one is BNSF 7315 in second place on an east-to-northbound string of empty garbage containers on well cars - also presumably Seattle-Tacoma bound from the Arlington, OR landfill.

UP 8976
Title:  UP 8976
Description:  UP 8976 on the far lane, but still nearly on everyones toes, as she passes by the Vancouver Amtrak Station. Funny - getting three new units on the same day crossing the sensor (okay, getting _any_ new units is odd from the big boys around here) - but to have both major rail carriers represented seems super odd.
