Snow Day in Topeka by Jeff Carlson Northeast Kansas received a fairly decent snowfall on 12/15/2019, but the railroad trudges onward (I, however, managed to get a snow day out of the deal for Monday!). Regardless, just after Amtrak rolled through, a westbound light power move (D TOPEMP3 14M) took off from Topeka towards Emporia behind the BNSF 6376. The Santa Fe GP50 second out is the 3174.
