BNSF 7346 Eastbound U70491-12 West of Independence IA
And a way we go....that is what the engineer is about to experience as 98 loads of ethanol are about to push him up to 50 mph. Iowa is not flat as many think. One travels along the CN Dubuque Sub between Waterloo and Dubuque and you will see many hogbacks like this along this 90 mile route. This train was loaded at Tara, IA, and is bound for interchange with the CSXT at Chicago, IL.
