Remote Controlled Train @ Barstow

If you look into my website under the California gallery then look for a Barstow pix created 8:23:19 that is a BNSF train doing switching moves via remote control. [:o)][:p][:)]

Remote control is quite routine at Clearing for hump pushers, pulldowns and industrial switch jobs.
The daily commute is part of everyday life but I get two rides a day out of it. Paul
