BNSF Railway (BNSF) 7705 - GE ES44DC

While chasing this BNSF intermodal that was headed west on the Midway Subdivision, I elected to photograph it through the fence at a business just off Energy Park Drive. In retrospect, I probably should have gone down to Raymond Avenue and made my catch there. No matter. While the pic isn't a masterpiece, I still caught the train.
