Back in August of 2020 when BNSF was having new C4’s built one of the new units still with shiny trucks and sparkling paint paid a visit. Here in Part 1 we see them dropping off a pair of hoppers on the Purina spur track before reversing back to their intermodal cut to drop out West. •••• #bnsf #train #trains #trainsofinstagram #trains_worldwide #trainspotting #trainspotter #railway #railfan #railroad #photography #lubbock #texas | TBB'S TRAINS

When you’re on the BNSF Transcon you never really know what you’re gonna see. And sometimes all the trains come at once. Here we see (and hear) 5 trains passing the same area within 10 mins of each other. Train 1 is a loaded coal headed to Arizona coming off the Boise City. Followed by a Westbound intermodal on the Panhandle sub meeting an Eastbound baretable. As the baretable came to a stop an Eastbound manifest crossed over behind it and ran into Amarillo also while the last train headed East

We all yearn for the mines… ⛏️ We love coal trains, I’m not sure the railroad would ever be the same without them. Here’s BNSF 5831 guiding a solo empty onto the Plainview Subdivision before throttling up and out on their journey to Amarillo. ••••• #bnsf #train #trains #trainsofinstagram #trains_worldwide #trainspotting #trainspotter #railway #railfan #railroad #photography #lubbock #texas #bnsf5831 | TBB'S TRAINS
