BNSF coal loads, head south on the Joint Line. (Thank you to Joe B. for acting as tour guide this day.)

BNSF empty coal heads north while BNSF southbound full coal awaits for clearing north of Palmer Lake.

After loading taconite at U.S. Steel Keewatin Taconite (or Keetac ) BNSF 6284 has the signal to head south and off of Minnesota's Iron Range bound for the dock at Allouez, Wisconsin.
