BNSF 6022 Westbound ECLSWTM007 West of Lockridge IA
While everyone and their brother was out chasing the KCS 4006 on the CN, we hung out on the Ottumwa Sub for the day. I had pondered going home after commitments on Saturday in southern Iowa, but after the boys reaction to this heritage unit, I was glad we stayed. A 25th anniversary unit leads this Chiles, KY, empty working west from Galesburg to Lincoln. The train is about 150 miles from the next crew change point at Creston. We gave chase as the train rolls thru the hogback west of Lockridge along highway 34.
