Summary

Description	English: Mixed BNSF freight train between Kennewick and Wishram, WA. The locomotives are probably four GE Dash-9 C44-9W (not entirely sure about the last one). We were very lucky, as the sun just got out before the train passed by... Deutsch: Gemischter BNSF-Güterzug zwischen Kennewick und Wishram, Bundesstaat Washington, USA. Die Lokomotiven sind vermutlich vier GE Dash-9 C44-9W (bei der Hintersten bin ich nicht ganz sicher). Wir hatten sehr viel Glück, kam doch die Sonne genau im richtigen Moment hinter den Wolken hervor...
