| Description: |
BNSF 8072 (paperweight in the ladder entrance/old passing lane) - BNSF 4005 (slower triple with west-to-northbound covered hopper group at the point (front axle hitting the cross-over in this frame) slipping over to the eastern main-line) - BNSF 8852 (fastest as a double header on covered hopper line slipping along the western main-line, and the passing lane (over to the right - passing lane traffic takes the turn-out at the lower right of the frame, otherwise it continues to "slop" and squiggle) which currently holds BNSF 4467 triple-header with a southbound mixed freight waiting for a clear... this is the set the stage shot so you can loosely grasp whats where for the next fifteen minutes - far off to the left is the service/maintenance area and further back to the left (also out of the frame) is the power corral. The Vancouver Amtrak Station would be on the other side of the tracks (behind the lights of the on-coming train) next to the bridge guard green BNSF SD splot in the distance visible below the light tree and 4th Plain Blvd (which blocks the other auto bridge/over-pass (Padden Parkway/Mill Plain Blvd).
