BNSF; Up Close & Personal!!

[Brighton Local]

Finally caught a Train at the # 1 Fan Spot, Ive been trying to catch trains at for nearly 2 years. Flagstaff Bound Intermodal/Piggyback passes through Peoria, Arizona. I tell you though, being next to these monstrous Diesels, and freight cars made me a little worried. The whole time I was taping, I was thinking, what if, one of these containers fell off, and creamed me:o:eek:..

 

Anyways, enjoy ! Besides being a little worried, I loved every second if it!

Now that's a train! I counted 4 locomotives, 77 mixed intermodal well cars and husky stacks and 13 piggy back cars. All together a 90 car train. Nice catch on that one.

I remember telling you that I caught something like that up in Saratoga, NY, but I screwed up and wound up with only half the train. It was about a 75-80 car mixed train of well cars, husky stacks, box cars, piggy backs and covered hoppers. It was never posted.

Nice catch!

 

We see consists like that around here all the time. When we're stuck at the gate we turn the car off & listen to it go by. If we are close enough i'll get out & watch.

 

What kinda loco's are they? The lead and rear 2 trailing units look like the GE AC6000CW.
