Empty grain shuttle BNSF Train X ELPRUT9 21A eases up KCT Track 80 at 23rd Street. Sharp eyes will not a pair of BNSF Legacy Hoppers in the consist. The conductor on this train was one Ian Cole. I went through NARS with him in 2012 when getting back into the industry. He's certainly had a successful stint in railroading so far. A KC native, he worked for the UP out of Grand Junction, CO for a year, before hiring out with the BNSF in Cheyenne, WY before bumping back to his hometown.
The DPUs on BNSF Train E SCNNAM1 35C are seen behind them on BN 1.
