BNSF 9829 is sporting a replaced sunshade

This is the second BNSF executice cream and green locomotive that I've seen this weekend.

BNSF SD70MACs 9829 and 9447 spot 135-car loaded coal train C-EBMHAW0-63A to the Hastings Utilities power plant at Halloran, NE. The inbound train from Eagle Butte Mine, WY was 19170 tons and 7315 feet in length. The power then assembled 134 empty coal cars and departed as symbol E-HAWEBM0-62A.

Leading a Sb coal train

BNSF 6091 leads a 137 car WB GRDX past the waiting "LINEBACKERS"

The coal loads wind hrough the less than perfect track by the old Grove Yard.

The lead unit on the coal load matches the trailing Grinstein. Three ex Conrail SD50s sit waiting for work, or the torch.

a bnsf coal train on the csx crosses the ns, you can see a j switcher in the background

A head shot of the "vomit bonnet"

545 still waiting on a signal with a couple of "vomit bonnets" just west of Berea.

545 (empty) waits for a signal to crossover due to track work as an eastbound loaded coal drag blasts by and not a CSX unit to be found anywhere.
