BNSF 5909 Leads KCS CKCSH24 |
| Description: |
A loaded Martin Lake, Texas coal train rolls southward on the KCS Shreveport Subdivision as KCS train CKCSH24. This train originated on the BNSF at Rawhide Mine in the Wyoming Powder River Basin as BNSF train C-RWMMLM0-26 with 135 coal loads. 1 car was set out at Lincoln, NE so the BNSF delivered this 134 car train to the KCS at Kansas City. Additional locomotives were added by the KCS for the climb over Rich Mountain as the train is seen here in 3x3 DP configuration. BNSF ES44AC 5909, KCSM AC4400CW 4509, and KCS SD70ACe 4051 are on the head end while BNSF SD70ACe 9382,, KCS SD70ACe 4159, and KCS SD70ACe 4032 shove on the rear of this train which weighs 19,022 tons and is over 7,400 feet long with power. At Shreveport a BNSF crew will take over again and operate the train via UPRR trackage rights to the Luminanat Generation Company power plant at Martin Lake, Texas which is south of Longview. |

BNSF 5909 Leads KCS CKCSH24 |
| Description: |
Southbound KCS Martin Lake coal load CKCSH24 eases to a stop at the south end of Gillham where it will meet northbound empty KCS Welsh coal train CWEKC25. The lead units of the two trains will stop side-by-side and the crews will swap trains so the Heavener crew and the Shreveport crew will both end this tour of duty at their respective home terminals. |

BNSF 5909 Leads KCS CKCSH24 |
| Description: |
The KCS train dispatcher has lined southbound loaded Martin Lake coal train CKCSH24 into the siding at De Queen after advising the crew that two coal loads located ten cars from the rear would have to be set out to "Four Track" in the small De Queen Yard. The cars had separated twice so the decision was made to set both of them out here. BNSF ES44AC 5909, KCSM AC4400CW 4509, and KCS SD70ACe 4051 are on the head end while BNSF SD70ACe 9382, KCS SD70ACe 4159, and KCS SD70ACe 4032 shove on the rear of this 134-car train. Needless to say, the grade crossings and the De Queen and Eastern interlocking in town will be blocked for a considerable amount of time. |
