Made a stop by the Burg.

Today we made our way out to Galesburg, Illinois as we were staying out here in the area for our first big train event of the year. But before we made our way to the Quad Cities, we stopped by Galesburg with the intention of getting some of the Santa Fe Dash 9s on the various Galesburg Yard pulldowns, and one of them was none other than BNSF 669 the locomotive this channel was named after. And even though it was pushing a cut back of cars back to the yard, it was nice to see her again after 14 years. And aside from her, we got some action around the yard too. All in all, this was a pretty good day. Enjoy!
