Split in Two
Been pacing around in circles for hours now.
Running on it's own again Union Pacific 6312 takes one hundred and seven loads of corn from Savage, Minnesota through the farmland of the California Delta, as it blasts through Devries and Kingdon Road. The train is about an hour into it's final leg of it's cross country journey, as it heads to JD Heiskell's elevator outside of Pixley, California.
This train started it's trip for the West Coast on the thirteen running all the way to North Platte, Nebraska before becoming the rear end of the GSGAKE 15, in a masterful PSR demonstration of combining unit trains together to save on crews. Fortunately for me, due to the train needing a large piece of real-estate and a fair amount of time to get split up, Union Pacific chose to route this train down the dormant Sacramento Subdivision. Other than BNSF run through traffic, which was miserably absent, and a single local on Saturdays, this gave the crew all the time they needed to get the train split up and not jam up Roseville.
This train and a few other have a companion video available, follow the rabbit hole here: youtu.be/dw8iagTv9HY
