Random Powered Rail Train |
| Description: |
BNSF 7639 leads this loaded rail train (St. Louis - Burlington, IA) north into Elsberry, Mo. on the BNSF Hannibal Sub. It was pretty odd to see a CSX motor on a rail train, but after seeing all the other foreign power on the line today I guess anything is possible. |
