Viewing Album:  BNSF 1415 [SD60M Triclops] leading E-DONRWM 1-53E @ MP168.46 Flynn; & MP159.69 Normangee, TX

Album Info:I've been listening to the DS137 dispatcher all morning. Apparently the lead locomotive on the E-DONRWM 1-53E shut down over the holidays to low water alarm. Now the batteries were dead as well. So the crew, the dispatcher and someone at Teague discussed the remedy. (but neither were DPU capable) and both DPU's were facing the wrong direction for southbound movement. It was decided to pull one of the units off the RDV8141 Teague Local Job - the only one that was facing in the correct direction. This would be BNSF 1415: an SD60M "Triclops" (a "rare-ish" three piece window version). And it would lead to Dobbin Interchange. The bad unit was left on the Limestone Generating Station Plant interchange track, and the remaining DPU was brought to the front, leaving no power (DPU or otherwise) on the hind end, (which I think is a first for me since living here and for a coal train - empty or otherwise). The E-DONRWM got the power shuffled, and pulled south to Newby to wait for the H-CSYTEA 1-01A. Then she got her track warrant to come south . When the 173.5 Defect Detector sound ed off, I ran outside. It was rather spiffy clean, so I decided to run ahead to Normangee to catch it a second time on the curve coming into town. Not a bad start to the New Year!
