Southbound BNSF Coal Train DPU's
The DPU's on the C BTMPAM sit on the main as the conductor walks forward to make a cut and set out a badly bulging load of coal that was bad ordered. You can just make out the car directly on the crossing in the distance.

I like this study a lot - the sun to start with makes so much difference. I like seeing the whole of the train and the person walking down the track gives us a good idea on how large your trains really are. The sizes and lengths of your trains are unimaginable in the UK.

Good shot, I think those BNSF ACEs look good.

That is some dip in the rails.

This is just one of the many reasons I love railroading, having to be ready to deal with many unusual situations. You should've gotten a photo of the coal car after they set it out, Zach.
