BNSF's eastbound trackage rights manifest is approaching the grade crossing at Simms Street. For several years now, this train has been largely dominated by tank cars. Thanks to trackage rights...and an operating agreement between BNSF and Utah Railway...a lot of the tank business in the Salt Lake City area goes to BNSF.

After a few weeks of a lot of snow and fairly frigid temperatures, the sun is shining and the snow slowly recedes as a nice looking BNSF manifest glides by. A (relatively new) ES44C4 runs on the point of the manifest. These units were, for quite a while, only owned by BNSF. In fact, BNSF now owns over 1,000 such units. Recently, Florida East Coast became the second railroad to own these, with their order for 25.
