BNSF'S Birmingham Sub
Title:  BNSF'S Birmingham Sub
Description:  BNSF Southbound Empty Coal Train U-EOLBIR ( Eola, Illinois to Birmingham, Al. ) passing through Burnwell, Al. The crew of U-EOLBIR asked the dispatcher if it was fine with her if they stopped at the Texaco Convenient Store for a quick bite to eat on the run, dispatcher gave her approval & they got their food & drink, then headed on south to Adamsville to meet L-840 & met 1 more at Oakwood before finally heading on to Birmingham, Al. with a BNSF SD70ACe leading the Wabash Heritage SD70ACe for power, too bad the Wabash Heritage SD70ACe wasnt leading but at least Ive already caught it leading on a few occasions on NS. To the right of the 9218 in the distance at the tree line you can see the NS Alabama Division NA West End District which goes over the BNSF Birmingham Sub here in Burnwell, Al.
