Big Power On The K
Title:  Big Power On The K
Description:  For a line that is practically flat as a table top; it is pretty rare to see more than 2 - 4 units per train on the BNSF Hannibal Sub. (K-Line). Todays big surprise was a 9 unit freight, the H GALSTL9 01A, as it rolls south towards Annada, Mo. currently passing the intermediate signal at milepost 76.3. This consist was kind of bland, basically a GE lovers paradise, with the CitiRail being the odd man out.
