Burlington Northern & Santa Fe Railroad. 2 main line tracks, 6 sidings and a spur. Located just NW of the state capitol, just east of Hwy I-235, this location is a fairly active switching yard. It almost always has cars on the sidings, and sometimes has had numerous engines waiting. Not much in the way of parking, the dropoff from the roadway to the shoulder sometimes is 4-5 inches. July of 2020, I learned this actually has a name, Nowers Yard. It is the oldest rail yard in OKC.
