    Good to see my neck of the woods! I used to drive from cheyenne to Gillette every week and I miss seeing those coal trains running 3 wide heading south. Awesome

    I went out there a couple times when I was younger during summers with my grandpa and it was the best experiences of my life. I miss it!

    Great video, I am amazed how many Union Pacific run on this line. I was there this last week, saw 7 BNSF and 3 UP coal trains. Again great video.

      I too was surprised by the amount of Union Pacific traffic. It only occurred to me how much UP I saw as I was editing.

      bnsf7562 with Union Pacific going with PSR, it’s cut the amount of traffic, and how many coal trains if runs on the Power River line. Unfortunately BNSF is running longer coal trains like UP. Great video.

    I was here in sept of 2018 and was surprised at how few trains i saw after seeing videos of 3 and 4 train meets. I never saw anything like that. Did see a double stack train which was neat becuse I too never knew anything other than coal ran down this line

    Cool Video . Good looking scenery out there. Traffic has decreased significantly out that way I would imagine but still plenty of trains to catch.

      There are plenty of trains to catch. I was surprised at how busy it was given the downturn in coal demand.

    Wow the SD70MACes have no visible PTC Antenna But they must have them cause they are on point of some of the trains featured here.

    I love to see the coal trains and the occasional freight trains. Do you have a 24 hour version? How about list of all the train symbols that go with these trains?

    • @bnsf7562
      @bnsf7562  2 роки тому +1

      Unfortunately, I do not have either of those things. I don't know much about BNSF train symbols or the number of trains that use this line over a 24 hour period. I know the most recent issue of TRAINS Magazine had a story on a portion of this line.

    the coal trains i saw at Mullan Pass do have well over 100 cars (despite so steep), but here in less mountainous area trains are far shorter -why is that?

    • @bnsf7562
      @bnsf7562  3 роки тому

      One of the possible reasons may be the demand for coal has dwindled significantly in recent years. The Montana video I made was shot in 2014. This video was shot in 2018. While a difference of four years may not seem like much, it does add up.

    Hey pal you forgot some useful information on the wheeling and Lake Erie’s Brewster subdivision video. I wanted to share with you some useful information about the Creston west switch

    Great video thanks for posting. How long has BNSF been running non Coal trains over the line? Business that slow? I remember when supervisors would complain about "foreign" loads on the line.

    • @bnsf7562
      @bnsf7562  5 років тому

      I'm not exactly sure. I was under the impression that it was strictly for coal trains, so when I saw the stack train and the manifest, I got confused. It looks like there is a scheduled stack train that runs over the line, but anything else may just be a detour or an extra possibly.

      @@bnsf7562 This line is 98% coal trains, but ive seen a video of an Autorack train on this line. The Other different train besides coal go on the Casper Subdivision and Big Horn Subdivision

    • @AustinWesternRailfan

      And back then from what I was told, this line used to be flooded with manifests and other unit trains

      I've done a bit of the Sydney Sub in southeastern WY and western NE. Later this year, I'll be putting up a video I did of the triple track main between Gibbon and North Platte. I would like to do the western part of Wyoming, but it will probably won't happen for some time yet.
