Crossing over the BNSF         
Crossing over the BNSF main headed to Grand JCT, TN with 1 car for the NS. Tracks from left to right are the tail track coming off of the Mississippi Central Yard, BNSF main, MC main. There used to be a diamond here until 1982. Now, MC trains have to get permission from the BNSF dispatcher to get lined up through two switches over their railroad.
