The Normal |
| Description: |
This is a normal for me when trainwatching on the Hinckley Sub., it's the well known Hinckley Local. This Local has gone through many changes from GP38 - 2s to GP28Ps to GP28Ms. I think these are the best 2 for the job |

BNSF 778 North |
| Description: |
Only 30 minutes behind BNSF 5877 North, BNSF 778 North arrives in Hinckley with a great looking leader. This is my first Warbonnet leader in 3 months (Since BNSF 4719 lead a intermodal train in Rochelle on 7/15). A ES44DC is the second unit, which is very surprising on taconite trains. I saw a DPU on a loaded taconite train on Saturday on the way to church which was a ES44DC |

UP 3784 South |
| Description: |
UP is rare on the Hinckley Sub, but when you get one, make sure you get lots of photos. Here we see a UP Southbound in the siding at Grasston waiting for a new crew to take it from Grasston to the Cities. I bet it's still there right now |
