BN/BNSF Ellensburg, WA
Yet another coal car experiment. The trough train. Empty east returning for another load of coal.
Recall a friend saying how well the train handled with all those interconnected cars. Problem was all the cars taken out of service when one part got a bad order.
It's interesting how many innovative attempts the Burlington Northern tried in its twenty five years.
