That should be "Windy Afternoon On he Bridge At BNSF's Galesburg Classification Yard." ;-) I've taken a real interest in Galesburg lately. Between Mark Loewe's great Galesburg Terminal ATCS kit, the Galesburg Railroad Museum webcam and the audio feed on RadioReference, I've been having a blast railfanning from my desk at home. It really does look like it was slow that day compared to what I've been hearing and seeing lately. It also seems to me that the Chillicothe sees more traffic.
Great mix of power and job duties. I wish I had a yard that big here to watch I'd pay them to rent me a room.
Great Video Frank. It really cpatures the essen of Yard work. Love it.
Lucky man! I've been curious with that area ever since I first saw It on Amtrak.
Great video, great horn action, great consists. A great video all around.
They look like they are the cars that carry Ribbon Rail. (Continuois welded rail)
Great video its so amazing that they take all those cars in a seeming mess and make trains work from them.
Thanks for the info on that. I refrained from answering because I did not know myself!
Very interisting Video. That SD70MAC looks beat up from above. ANd lots of "Cool" Power located there.
the blue sd70Ace im thinking is the heritage unit.
Nice vid! I love watching those yard movements! Im also going to the BNSF yard in Pasco, WA!:)
