BNSF Eastbound Manifest

Here's a few shots of a BNSF manifest - BNSFWSESM5009. Note the Blue Gondola 2nd back from the engines in the first photo. This was delivered to the Union Pacific interchange in Portland by the Mud Bay & Southern (Jim Younkins Layout). The UP switched the gon to the BNSF to expedite the shipment of scrap steel to a shipper in Minneapolis St Paul.
