Remarks & Notes |
A BNSF work train was dumping riprap along the bank of the Mississippi River with side dump gondolas, which I had never seen in action before. The train consisted of a green and white GP50L 3162, 17 gondolas and a spreader on the end. There were two different types of gondolas on this train. The power of compressed air is quite amazing.
