Every Minute There is a train going threw! Non Stop Trains BNSF Traffic! When i was There visiting my Aunt and uncle, We were in a Restruant at a window table, After being there for about 45 minutes i saw at least 30 Frieght Trains go Threw! Then when we were driving home, We got Stoped at a Train signle when a train was going threw. Then once it goes threw, Then another one goes by going the other direction, Then when that one was threw, "Oh God dammit here comes another!". Finally we got threw. I Like Trains but some times in Flagstaff they can actually piss you me for how long they make us wait. Anyways im new to these forums, I do mostly Computer games and computer hardware, but im also into HO scale Train tables. I have a 4 by 8 train table. Still building it too. Call me Drunk Engineer.

I'm a bit confused. Perhaps it's my temporarily uninebriated state. 30 trains in forty five minutes; 85mph freight/95mph psgr? Wow! They should build a subway like Reno - maybe a tunnel from Darling to Williams or something. Just don't try to cross the tracks in Cozad, NE though; they run at 110mph and go thru every 9 seconds.
