| Remarks & Notes |
| BIG 10 SAND
A westbound BNSF sand train slowly slugs its way out of the dip at Rocky and up the 2%+ grade towards Clay (Eisle). A very wet spring has turned the foothills of the Rockies into lush green "Paradise"... The short heavy train is destined for the large Fracking Sand Facility at Wellington Utah. Despite the fact the Uintah Basin now has two local sand mines, the Utah wells still require some high quality fracking sand from the Mid-West. |
