BNSF 6800 |
| Description: |
With no more eastbound traffic on the Aurora Sub, it was a straight shot into Savanna from Milledgeville. There were a few trains coming off and going onto the Barstow Sub at Savanna, and we were able to make it down to the searchlights guarding the diamond with the CP in town just in time to get X-ELPCSN5-22 splitting the pair on the north side. |

Not even a minute later, XH-NTWTUL1-31 came down from the north. With the grain train still going through the interlocking, we had to just settle for the one searchlight on the south side of the diamond. Made for a cool portrait frame though. |

The manifest ended up blocking out the DPU on the grain train, and with three units on the front of the manifest we assumed there would be nothing on the rear of it. We assume wrong. Oh well. H2s look good even without neat signals! |

| Description: |
After both BNSF trains, CP K68 gets headroom across the diamond with a long hood forward GP20C-ECO, and comes up just far enough to inch by the signals on the west side of the diamond. I now finally have pictures of trains splitting all four pairs of signals! |

CP 2313 and BNSF 4285 |
| Description: |
CP K68 reverses back into the Savanna Yard as BNSF Z-CHCPTL3-31 sits at the diamond. We still arent sure why they allowed the CP local to run in front of a BNSF Z Train, but they did. Unfortunately for us, we couldnt sit and wait on the BNSF train to come north, as we still had an almost hour drive to Dubuque and were running out of time to pick up the rental car from Enterprise for tomorrow. So, with that, this is all we managed to get of the Z Train. But, this is a pretty neat shot nonetheless. |

BNSF 8480 |
| Description: |
While after the iron ore train things began to cool off, there was still another northbound out there. Despite Savanna still being a pretty long haul from Galena, we made the dash south and went up to Lookout Point at Palisades Park on the north side of town. Thankfully, a CP local working the yard was stretched across the diamond which gave us time to get up there. Once the CP cleared, BNSF U-EOCMNU0-23 began its northward trip following the Mississippi River with a SD70ACe leader. |
