BNSF 8223 last of three units on the headend of a covered hopper consist under dismally familiar type skies - except the lack of trees and a few degrees difference, possibly little difference between Connell and Vancouver on this day - oh, wait, except we got word from back in Vancouver it was sunny and warm. Figures.
BNSF 8223 in the trunk and ready to push from the rear on a mile or more of empty hoppers.
BNSF 6158 - BNSF 4447 - BNSF 8223 in a noon-hour "night shot" pass... the rain getting hard enough and the sky black enough that old ISO 1600/3200 just isnt going to cut it.
BNSF 4894 - BNSF 4342 ready to duck into the trees below the over-passBNSF 4342, BNSF 8223 waits patiently for pushing the opposite direction under a solid sheet of rain.
BNSF 8223 in third on a triple-header of power nearly glowing, especially butted up against BNSF 4493 - guess its understandable to want your nose as far away from that as possible.
This is usually what we would see on a coal drag (not to mention the Mac's) thru here.......but just waiting for a ride now.
Brand new and First pics of these unit's on RRpics.
