Quoting Bob Sullivan <[email protected]>:

Very good Brian and impressive.
That's new railroad, some of the only new in the past 50 years.
The BNSF trains end up passing me in Illinois.
They are bringing low sulfur coal back to our electric generating plants.
We have plenty of coal here, but it's high sulfur. Montana's is low sulfur.
It's easier to burn the low sulfur than scrub it out of the smoke stacks.
Regards,  Bob S.


Thanks Bob.

They're certainly moving that coal around. While we were lunching at least 6 trains went past - some BNSF and some Union Pacific. And this was a Sunday. Mothers' Day, in fact.

Thanks to all who looked /commented.  Much appreciated.



Cheers

Brian
