Rerouted Corn
BNSF train G-NSLHER, a loaded corn train, crossing the Meramec River at West Valley Park on the BNSF Cuba Sub. The loads originated at ADM in North St Louis, and are bound for Hereford, TX. The corn was originally manifested to begin its journey by barge, but near historic low water levels on the Mississippi River dictated a change to rail transport. Thanks to my friends at the St Louis Railfans and Modelers Facebook group for the train and load information!
