A southbound BNSF coal load with a nice consist - a trio of ES44ACs - passes through the very long OS section of the crossovers at MP 80.8. The train has a clear signal at west bill as it heads east on Main Three.

I forgot to mention the weight Wolf! Each car on this train probably weighs around 115 tons, so probably between 14,000 and 15,000 tons for the entire train.

Hello Wolf. This train consisted of about 125 hoppers (around 7,000 feet) and had the three units on the point as well as two on the tail end.
