BNSF 9988 Crew tossed us a six pack bottle of water.

BNSF 9988(SD70MAC) Goes towards Shreveport,LA as it crosses the diamond in Texarkana,TX with two GEVO'S. This train had a very friendly crew. You can see the conductor open the door to toss us some water. One busted, I drank one of them, and KCSLines kept the other four. I was railfanning with legsbluetrain and KCSLines. This train also has a DPU. At the end of the video is something that looks like sand that came out of one of the cars. To the crew, thanks for the water!

Interesting. My Grandpa said that when he was a boy, the engineers would throw him comic books! Not water!

I love when the rail road workers are nice and do stuff like this, CN crews who were working on the tracks offered me a folding chair to sit on while I rail fan, which I turned down due to it would look funny sitting down in the middle of the side walk and recording, Really cool video man

You got lucky they didnt throw something else at you. The CJRR tracks where I live are littered with piss bottles from the trains. The engineer is nice, though, it turns out it's some guy I knew for years and we both had a laugh over it.
