ATSF 91 - Anaheim, CA - 5/22/90
Title:  ATSF 91 - Anaheim, CA - 5/22/90
Description:  On July 4th, 1989, Santa Fe Railway unveiled a pair of FP45s in the resurrected red and silver Warbonnet scheme, dubbed the Superfleet scheme. These were repainted after the railroad restored the California Railroad Museum’s F7A and B units into Warbonnet colors for a public relations film, and the road’s executives realized what a valuable scheme it was. So valuable, in fact, that the new Superfleet scheme was painted on all new power delivered with wide noses, beginning with the GP60Ms. The first two GP60Ms arrived in Los Angeles on May 22, 1990 and, coincidently, that same day a passenger special behind a pair of FP45s (91 and 90) operated on the railroad’s Surf Line. The train, carrying officials of the Southern California Regional Rail Authority were touring the various lines on which they hoped to begin Metrolink commuter train service, is seen here passing through the Amtrak station in Anaheim, California.

BN 8151

Description:  As an eastbound Burlington Northern Santa Fe freight (H-BASI1-26) passes through Daggett, in California's Mojave Desert, a platoon of Marines from nearby Marine Corps Logistics Base Barstow marches by.

On the point of this train is Burlington Northern SD40-2 8151, which was never renumbered as a BNSF engine before being sold off to Helm Leasing (as their HLCX 8151).
