Westbound BNSF Railroad passing underneath the Congress Park overhead block signal bridge. Brookfield Illinois USA. December 2006.

Westbound BNSF Railway empty unit coal train passing underneath the Congress Park overhead block signal bridge at the Prairie Avenue railroad crossing. Brookfield Illinois. December 2006.

I took this photo looking west from the Prairie Avenue railroad crossing, in west suburban Brookfield Illinois. Seen here on a sunny and somewhat mild December morning in 2006, is a westbound BNSF Railway empty unit coal train leaving Chicago.

We live right on the BNSF southern route in south central Missouri. We've been seeing some passenger traffic of late. A few minutes ago a northbound train was pulling ten passenger cars.

What might that be all about?
