Another Day, Another Dog
Apr. 14th, 2022 03:30 pmThe "little BN" local got a new locomotive to replace the clanger that sat broken down for a couple of weeks. For a while, it looked like it wasn't going to make a difference.
( At least it didn't start clanging )
I was busy with Day Jobbe, so I didn't hear how they managed to do so, but eventually they got the leak on the locomotive fixed sufficiently that they could pull cars from the yard and go on about their business. They weren't here last night, so I guess they must have made it into Sparks Yard, and Fernley Yard was mostly free of cars for the first time in weeks, giving us a clear view of the tracks.
Why BNSF keeps sending defective locomotives out here, I don't know.
