We do like our trains around here, and this one led by BNSF locomotive 5490 made the day complete. The pedestrian overpass at Carkeek Park is perfect for train-spotting.

Great shot.
nice wheels
Is there a schedule of train passing times for Carkeek? I'd love to take my son too see one on a weekend.
BNSF freight trains may operate on a schedule but I don't know it. It's a fairly busy line so you might get lucky.
You can see Amtrak trains running northbound at around 7:50 am, 4:55pm, and 6:50pm. There are southbound trains at around 10:25am and 9:25pm.
On weekdays, Sound Transit commuter trains pass Carkeek going southbound at around 6:45am, 7:15am, and 7:45am. The northbound trains go by aroud 4:50pm, 5:20pm, and 5:50pm.
