4/14/12: Tried for Q132, got Q218

Unread post by CSXIndyLine »

A friend and I set out this evening for the Q132 with unknown power (still unknown to us). Upon arrival, the signal quickly was upgraded from a stop to a high clear. Half an hour later, Q218 barrelled through Lawrence with a piercing horn and a pair of classic EMD's, the SD40-2. The train came out 1706 hours and the picture & video are below.

I saw the 132 east of Sidney, I missed the power at the crossing, I was about half mile away, but it looked like maybe BNSF power but am not 100% certain.
