    Has BNSF taken out a track at the Double Diamonds in Rochell, IL.? [​IMG] It looks as if they have on the webcam? Anyone know why? [​IMG]

    Brent not sure what you mean i took a look and saw a BNSF train rolling by on the track closest to the cam hard to tell about the other track with all the snow
    Ok if you look at this picture it does look as if one of the lines are missing

    but looking at this recent picture the track is still there just been covered in snow my guess is BNSF are only utilising the one line

    Brent,
    I just saw a BNSF stack train pass on the adjacent line so both tracks are operational
    I just realised these pictures keep updating lol
