Westbound BNSF Work Train         
A warbonnet led work train leads the power consist past the depot. The #2 traction motor on the trailing unit, BNSF 5163, locked up. They cut away from the consist, which was a Georgetown Ballast Train, at the crossing and ran ahead to set out the 2nd unit. It was nice to see a Santa Fe painted unit next to the Santa Fe Depot though. This delayed my Amtrak train and my ride back to Kansas City by a good 45 minutes.
