So this is what it looks like in downtown Kansas City, MO behind Union Station at times..........it gets as busy on that triple track route sometimes.    KC route is shared by UP, BNSF, KC Terminal, and Amtrak.   I heard sometimes NS but I have yet to see a NS train on the KC trackage yet.

In the video below, 5 visible trains on three tracks all about the same time.
