This is from the Lincoln railfan club letter. 08/11/04. <br /> <br />At times citizens become so irate at times at having crossings blocked that they take the law into their own hands. A dog catcher crew was sent to Cheney road to bring in a coal empty. The crew got on the train,noticed that the EOT reading showed normal air pressure in the rear end of the train and started to pull it into lincoln,ne. They got their train into west F-5 and were in the crew van headed for the yard office than a call on the radio, "Did you bring in the whole train?" The crew answered in the affirmative and lincoln yard asked them to check when the Kansas City Line Dispatcher called to say he showed a train without any power at Old Cheney Road (a non-DPU empty). <br />The crew was "Sumbfounded" to find out they brought in "only" the engines and "only 40 cars". Subsequent investigation revealed that a person or persons unknown had turned the angel cocks on both sides of the cut of the train,they pulled the Coupler pin then tied the hand Brakes on the rear of the train!!!! <br />[bow]BNSF[bow]
