BNSF Fast Freights 7 - Red River Valley Subdivision

Red River Valley Subdivision

Traffic on this line can be anything from work trains to high-speed intermodal.

In this video you are in for a treat! The first BNSF train is all empties consisting of mostly well-cars. The train is returning the empty well-cars to the west coast, and there are a lot of them as the train is very long.

The second BNSF train is Q ALTPTL6 16A, Alliance TX to Portland OR. The consist has NINE BNSF power units on the point, six of which are brand new ES44C4 and ET44C4.

After the high-speed run by, we see the Q ALTPTL6 16A once more in Amarillo's North Yard as it slowly drifts through the yard, allowing a less hurried look at the new power.
