1996 or 2006? |

This could have passed as a shot taken in 96' just after the merger, but the sad fact is that its 2006. The entire time we were down at Northtown, all that could be seen was BN green!! How things have changed since this was taken. |

This sure was a nice catch, seeing a strait SD45 owned by NRE. I bet this old SD25 has seen MUCH better days, like pulling high speed freight from LA to Chicago. This engine was 40 years old when I took this picture, shows how well the ATSF keeq up their power. |

SD9s |
Description: |
Two SD9s and a GP28M make up a very nice lashup for 2006. The 6120 is set up to run long hood forward, and that makes sense since it is former GN. The two SD9s were 48 years old, and the GP28Ms frame was 50 years old when I took this shot. A true tribute to the quality of EMDs locomotives. |

CEFX 3117 |
Description: |
CEFX rests just north of 44th Ave among other units waiting for a trip to the shops. I thinking this is an SP unit based off the headlights in the nose. |

Coal train |
Description: |
A BNSF coal train lead by two war bonets accelerates as is goes by. The sounds of the horn and engines were great. This is one of 10 trains I saw in two hours while I was at Osborne Road. |

Old Soldier |
Description: |
This former CB&Q SW1200 was still active on the BNSFs roster as of 2006., and at 51 years of age. I think the HI looks great on these units. |
