BNSF 4812 West tiptoes over the NS Crooked River bridge.



Severe flooding in the Missouri River basin in Nebraska, Kansas and Missouri has backed up feeder waterways such as Crooked River, which is nearly high enough to overflow its levee system. Here at Hardin it is touching the NS bridge, thus activating their policy of 10-mph slow-orders for all trains until the water recedes. As a result, rail traffic is significantly affected and suffers substantial delays in getting through the area.
Beautiful..
