The "Staple" for trains on this line. |
| Description: |
A BNSF GEVO leads sb Coal Load along the Boise City Sub in Oklahoma. Train is crossing the Cimarron River which is just past the rear of the train here at MP 138 along this line. This is the most common movement on this stretch of track nowadays. A few manifest travel it also, but what ya see here, is pretty much, what ya get. |

Red means ya can't go |
| Description: |
Kinda obvious here as to why. This is at Baxter Colo east of Pueblo Co on the Ex ATSF line between Pueblo and La Junta. A SB Coal Load had a car on the ground, prior to getting to the switch here at the west end of the Baxter siding. Well, it didn't make it. About 28 cars went on the ground here about 700am this Saturday morning. This shot is about 8 hrs later. Quite the mess. Coal all over the place. No one hurt, but lots of cars abit dinged up. |

Another shot at Baxter |
| Description: |
This is the view of the derailment, looking east. Hulcher crews allready hard at work trying to reopen the line. I believe the tracks were opened about 2300 or the same night as the derailment. Pretty good work. As of today, 12/18/2010, there are still 2 rather large piles of soon to be scrap Coal Cars along with there wheel sets still here. |
