Highball on the Transcon

The Transcon, known to railfans as possibly the Route 66 of American mainlines.This thread of rails runs as far east Illinois and as far west as California.The mainline is home to some of the highest priority trains on the BNSF, NS, and UP.

Knowing this, Highballing Berk spent a day in Henrietta, Missouri on the famous Marceline sub.Here in a breief 10 minute video, we bring to you the sites and sounds of high speed freight action through the midwest.
