Since we were stopped again, the BNSF and A & C provided more entertainment.  BNSF sent two westbound trains and the A & C broke their train apart and shoved part onto the BNSF for pickup.

   

   

It was somewhere around 6:15 PM when we moved and reached terminal velocity of 10 or 15 miles per hour.  This was going to be 75 miles at this blazing speed.
