BNSF Seattle Sub Centralia North

 

    We hear the Centralia North Dispatcher running BNSF, UP. Amtrak and Sounder Commuter trains between Tukwila, Wa and Nisqually, Wa. Weekday volumes on the north end of the Seattle Sub are high due to the 18 Sounder trains that run between Seattle and Tacoma. Trains traveling on the Seattle Sub often are on their way to or from BNSF's famous Stevens Pass Route to points east. Amtrak, Sounder, and the Union Pacific have trackage rights over the BNSF on the Seattle Sub.
