BNSF 8460 eastbound CATMRTR001 West of Mt. Pleasant IA

The foggy conditions continued across the Midwest today which meant a frosty countryside was found everywhere. I made a trip down to do some Transcon action in the snow, which I haven't done hardly at all. It was a good day, traffic was alittle slow unfortunately.

 

The new year resets the train counts in the coal train symbols on the BNSF. The 1st loaded train of 2021 for Rush Tower, MO, (RTR"001") for Union Electric is eastbound on the Ottumwa Sub. Here the coal train picks up speed as they roll into Mount Pleasant. At Burlington the train will get a new crew for the trip down the K-Line towards Hannibal and onto St. Louis.
