Before my family went to our vacation in Whistler, Canada, we stopped in Seattle for some sight-seeing. While we were there, I stopped by the BNSF mainline to see some rail action. I found a really cool and active crossing, to bad it is a quiet zone. Enjoy!

Alaskan Way and Broad Street is a great place to watch trains. Too bad Shakey's Pizza is gone. Lunch with trains out the window was fun.
You caught some interesting equipment. The ex-Amtrak boxcar, NS shove platform, SD60Ms and GP60Bs are all pretty rare. You even caught an ex-GN Big Sky Blue wood chip car.
The Empire Builder was nice to see, especially with two units on the point. Amtrak has been running it with only one lately.
