I often see a KCS grain train here on the Boone sub with a UP ATC equiped leader. Does anyone know the origin/destination of this train?

The Sterling grain trains have the symbol GSRKNA ( grain shuttle - Sterling, IL - Nashville, AR)

I can't help you with the Boone trains, sorry.

Very nice catch Larry, I really want to see one of those! Very nice! I see there was also a TFM SD70MAC back there too, did you get a photo of it?

Thanks. :)
