Скачать или смотреть Very Slow BNSF Z Train

Z trains are the highest priority trains on the BNSF system, although you might not be able to tell from this video. An eastbound BNSF container and piggyback train passes Agency, Iowa at a crawl on the morning of September 2, 2017. This Z train is most likely the Z-DENCHI. This is the daily intermodal from Denver, Colorado (DEN) to Chicago, Illinois (CHI). It typical passes through here at a predawn hour.

The reason the Z train is going so slowly is that there is a broken rail at the crossing just west of this spot. It is being walked by before the rail is getting replaced. You can watch the new rail get installed here:    • BNSF Replaces Rail After Amtrak Passes  .
