BNSF 732 Eastbound M33891-20 East of Winthrop IA
The daily Waterloo Yard to Kirk Yard manifest train has a old veteran leader today. BNSF 732 does the honors on this 6800 foot DP-d train as they cross over Buffalo Creek on this wooden bridge east of Winthrop. The railroad realigned the track thru here many years ago to lesson the grades thru here. One can see the old piling from the old alignment that crossed way lower. There use to be some hellish grades thru here back in the IC days.
