Person went to the BNSF in the late 90's, pretty good change MAC's were going to leading the coal trains. Here a real shiny Grinstein MAC leads another as this loaded coal train works over the Ottumwa Sub back in 1998. The train is between Ottumwa and Mount Pleasant as they drop into the Skunk River Valley near Rome. Love the classic ex-CB&Q ABS signal int he background, those are long gone from this route as are most of the MAC's.
