Remote controlled SD40 works NTW |
Description: |
BNSF 1913 pulls a pretty long cut of cars south through NTW, passing under the St. Anthony Parkway bridge. I believe 1913 was being remotely operated (didn't see an engineer and the RC warning light on the cab is seen on - was flashing). |

Description: |
A closer shot of BNSF 7817 rolling slowly north just before passing under St. Anthony Pkwy. With the grain elevator in the background and a nicely clouded afternoon sunlight, this shot turned out pretty nice. |

20-axle super heavy flatcar at Central |
Description: |
Just west of Central Ave and on the southern track, this low-boy style flat car caught my eye. At 20 axels, the behemoth can carry 477 tons!?! The car also says 25mph limit when empty; this train was stopped at the time, no idea where to/from/anything else. |
