Rought Night Shot...But Worth It
Title:  Rought Night Shot...But Worth It
Description:  BNSF 5529 & FXE 4094 lead this Memphis to Galesburg freight as it sits in Elsberry, Mo. on the BNSF Hannibal Sub. The crew has had an eventful night to say the least. Be`ore they arrived in Elsberry the 836 local hopped off the tracks in the spur track in town. With the remaining cars still on the main this MEM-GAL went through the siding and then shoved the remgining cars of the local down closer to town. After they were finished with everything; which took about 45 mins, they went dead on hours and tiee the train down on the main.
