BNSF 5107 heads an empty crude oil train northbound, 10:29 a.m. The empty oil trains run from the refinery on the Louisiana Gulf coast north on the Monroe Sub, past the station on the Little Rock Sub then northward to Dexter, Missouri, eventually to the oil's source in North Dakota and Canada. The loaded crude oil trains run on the Jonesboro Sub through Brinkley and Pine Bluff, Arkansas southward through Monroe, Louisiana then to the Louisiana Gulf Coast near New Orleans.
