EMR 908? is currently switching McAdam at 11:12 local time. Large cut of NBSR owned ballast cars are in the train.

NBSR 506 running as the passenger train departed around 11:00 with 3095 on point.

NBSR 908 on the move east out of McAdam at 11:23 AM with ballast cars. They picked up some MOW guys so I guess they are doing a ballast dump somewhere on the McAdam sub.

NBSR 121 was into McAdam @ 21:42 ADT, EMR 64XX/MNR 64XX/NBSR 64XX, 63 mixed freight(16 autoracks, 14 hi-cube boxcars, 2 covered hopper, 3 white tanks, 14 black tanks, 14 center beams), 68 wells, 145 containers.

This is the best night viewing I've had so far. I think intermodal counts, as well as everything else, should be pretty accurate.

230 containers going east might be the most ever on one train. Wonder why there's so many going at once

The view @ McAdam has been adjusted so there is a better view of the southern track. Keep an eye out for the NBSR "caboose" on the 506.

There was 292 before it got truncated at what I presume to be the border.
