BNSF Sand Train in Wisconsin Rapids

BNSF Sand Train in Wisconsin Rapids

June, 2018

One CN comes out of the Wisconsin Rapids yard, crossing 17th Avenue.

.

They head toward the quarry, which is a dead end track.
The target on the switch stand shows red for this route, its a dead end.
Green would be around the wye and going south towards the Taylor subdivision.
It's just a case of Green is not always the straight route through a turnout.

.

There's a trio of BNSF locomotives ahead.

.

The sand train goes all the way back in to the rock quarry
and is split for the crossing, and it was there for 2 days,
and that is sitting on top of the switch to Thiele Clay, tieing up access.
And then this left before the weekend.

.

And this picture is not shown upside down,
it's just the way the quad copter was headed
a foot before it hit the ground.

Not so good.

Upside down.
But at least it was on the soft grass.
Flying is not an exact science yet,
for the low price range that I work with.
