Taken on June 29, 2011 at Agency, Iowa.

An eastbound mixed-freight led by three Geeps passes the Agency ballpark. While I moved from this spot to the crossing the rest of the clips are from, a westbound coal train came through with a Union Pacific engine as its second unit.

Engines: BNSF 5142, 4347, and 4370.

Train 4 looks to be Z-CHIDEN1-29A
Train 1 looks to be R-CHI1xx. Can't remember the number off the top of my head. But great video! I'll have to make my way down there again sometime!

Nice video! I heard about 145 coming back through and caught all of these trains in Ottumwa as well.
