Nomad of Mid-America
Ice-Z BNSF
A hot Z8 and its equivalent BNSF intermodal trains are about the only things remotely warm about this early January day along the Chillicothe Subdivision, the Illinois segment of the former Santa Fe Transcon. Z WSPSBD8 01L, bogged down with parcels and LTL shipments bound cross-country for the LA basin, is making good time up Edelstein Hill despite lagging over 12 hours off the transportation service plan, a consequence (at least partially) of the winter storm that has iced the Illinois River Valley like frosting.
