BNSF Military Movement on the P&L
A train headed up by BNSF engine 5041 headed North through Madisonville’s West Yards and on Tuesday afternoon July 28, 2009 with 28 flat cars, each with two tanks. Car Trace on the P&L website lists the train as LCL328 leaving Paducah at 13:20 on the same date, but not much else. At West Yards it took a siding in order to pass the LGE Coal Drag that was waiting to depart also to the North. The overhead location was at the overpass on Grapevine Road in Madisonville looking North as the train heads away from Madisonville. (Photos by Jim Pearson)
