BNSF's Staples sub part 2

On July 6 we headed to the staples sub to do more train filming. I stayed at The Amtrak depot in Detroit Lakes for awhile and nothing came.We then decided to head to the east. We eventually saw nothing but then I saw headlights so we pulled into county road 9 when a BNSF train rolled by

 9141 was in the lead

























It also had BNSF 9831 as a DPU


























As you can hear in the video the loco had a strange sounding horn.



After that something different showed up,a CSX train


























It had something I've never seen,blinking ditch lights

Then a BNSF intermodal




























After that we headed to Verndale along the way we saw a tank train


























Once we got to Verndale an eastbound intermodal showed up

























This train was going really fast probably about 50 or 60 KPH



then we headed back to Detroit Lakes their I caught to trains.First an eastbound mixed freight

 Then the westbound intermodal





























Well that was another good day of filming trains on the Staples sub.
