Hazy Afternoon at Willow Springs

Foreground: The power for BNSF train Z NBYWSP (BNSF 4437, North Bay, CA -> Willow Springs, IL) has just cut way from it's train on track 1713 at Willow Springs. In a few minutes, it'll be shoving back to the non-priority traffic it left on main 2 for the final leg of it's trip to Corwith.
Background: BNSF Q PEACHI (Pearland, TX -> Corwith, IL) is in the middle of setting off it's autos for the ramp at Lockport, IL as idle power waits on the house track for a Z train later in the day. Q PEACHI will be following Z NBYWSP to Corwith.

First screenshot posted in almost eight years, nice to be back. This is my "learning route", that I am doing to reacquaint myself with Trainz and learn the new features. Lubbock route is a fictionalized version of this northwest Texas town and the area around it.

Thanks for looking

Cheers,

Back on topic, Trinity Rail - Alliance Facility. Edit: It was driving me crazy that I could not find any information on the TrinityRail Alliance facility. I finally turned to job listings for Alliance, NE and it turns out that it is not a TrinityRail facility, it is a Progress Rail Services Corp. facility. Well, that's completely different, never mind. :hehe:

BTW you might think that the number of rail cars stacked up here is exaggerated, if you check Google Earth you will find that I've under populated this facility. :D

Norm,
Issue with name has been corrected for Progressive Rail. The problem was it depends on the source you look at. The track chart shows it as Swepco? Another source showed Trinity. Oh well, it is now known as Progressive.
Take care and thanks again,
Dean

One of the problems with corporate America, assets switch from one to another at the drop of a hat and none seem willing to document their previous ownership.
