NOTCH 8! Uphill trains on the UP Sedalia Subdivision

Was that SP unit in the second-last train unpatched? Cool!

[BNSFbeagrett9647]

Nope. Sadly, the only unpatched SP was C44AC #107 on the last train. Thanks!

[MoPacBoy]

The JCS has been barely busy..lol me and UPDetector thought about going to the Sedalia sub

[BNSFbeagrett9647]

@MoPacBoy AMTK is suspending 2 of it's trains through here til Sunday because UP has so many trains they need all the track they can get.

Nice video Dalton

@Railhead1956 Thanks Peter!

Awesome train and crew of the SD70M 4505

[BNSFbeagrett9647]

@Defiant47 I agree. The "interesting" power is cool, refreshing from the normal GE AC units. I have a feeling that as the flood waters begin to receede, so will the traffic. Enjoy it while it lasts!

[BNSFbeagrett9647]

@BNSF700 I am planning on going back soon, since I only live a few miles away.

I work right next to the Sedalia sub through Independence MO and yeah, I love seeing all the extra trains. Especially the coal trains with the variety of locomotives both old and new. Saw one this afternoon with another SD60M "triclops." I love seeing all the older power instead of the oh so common AC44s. Too bad it won't last.
