Seattle and Some of My First Railfanning


Along the Seattle waterfront, Burlington Northern trains ran from Interbay to Balmer Yard.  I sat on concrete pilings on the wharf and watched the SD40-2's run light off of the intermodal trains.  When the sun began to set, the evening would cool, but my enthusiasm to watch trains would heat up, as the double-stack trains began to run from the hub center.  Woodchip trains from British Columbia headed south with the 8100 units bound for Tacoma and the paper mills.  This was some of my first railfanning along the Burlington Northern.
