BNSF 4129
Title:  BNSF 4129
Description:  BNSF 4129 leading into Connell with a covered hopper string behind her - the dark and blah lighting at three in the afternoon (note you can even see the step lights on the unit its so dark) and a normally impossible shot this time of day because the harsh shadows shooting into the sun wouldve blown the historic church, the BN caboose, or the power unit (or all three) - guess the rain isnt all bad... its a dry rain... (Huh? Wait... what? Never mind - it certainly wasnt a dry heat because it wasnt dry and it wasnt heated).

I staked out the perfect spot to catch them on this little trestle bridge right before the Connell yard. Odd that the BNSF crew is moving in before the show... oh - theyre not _going_ to show possibly? Great. At least it no longer looks like rain, so Ill sit up here (and then sat up there for another hour or more waiting - until BNSF 1694/1828 gave up and went home alone - I called it quits at the same time - but theres the trestle bridge!).
