BNSF 3188
Title:  BNSF 3188
Description:  I could hear the coal train I had caught a bit ago talking with another crew, and soon the sounds of switching came over the radio. I had a westbound! But where? The ammunition depot is near an ethanol plant in West Burlington, and thats where I found the R-CHI468 switching with a sole Geep.

BNSF 3188
Title:  BNSF 3188
Description:  I was pretty set on trying to get a photo of a train in Danville. So, I held hopes that the local would end up going west after they were done at the ethanol plant. So, I backtracked to West Burlington just to find that the engine had ran completely around the consist on the siding and the train was now facing east. Oh well, so much for that. I hung around long enough to grab this frame of the train shoving across Beaverdale Road.

BNSF 3188
Title:  BNSF 3188
Description:  Now it was time to sit and wait and see if anything showed. I picked up my book and began to read a little bit since I knew I was probably in for a wait. A little over a half hour later and I see the gates in front of me were coming down. Another eastbound? Great. I was a little more than disappointed to see that it was R-CHI468 again though. Long hood forward. With no cars. What in the world did they do with the giant cut that they had before I left West Burlington? The world may never know.
