WHAT THE... |
| Description: |
This is new for me, a pair of Big MACs on a ballast train. Is this a sign of SD70MACs losing their spots on the coal and taconite trains or is this a case of whatever power is good power? You decide |

Unusual, strange, and yet cool |
| Description: |
I don't think I will see this. What should be a set for SD40 - 2s or GP38 - 2s to pull, BNSF grabbed whatever they could in Northtown to pull this ballast train on the Hinckley Sub and choose a pair of SD70MACs. I believe they will be there for the rest of the weekend, so come to Brook Park and get your shots, just to tell ahead of time |
