Road-Testing New GEs
Title:  Road-Testing New GEs
Description:  Before General Electric completed its own test track at its Fort Worth plant, new locomotives were tested on the BNSF Fort Worth Subdivision main line heading north from the GE interchange. The trains, with either two or four units, were operated by a BNSF crew with two engineers and a conductor plus whatever technicians GE needed. Here were new Canadian National ET44AC units 3055, 3058, 3056 and 3054 heading south at Justin, Texas just a few miles north of the GE plant.

Title:  Southbound BNSF
Description:  A southbound BNSF train behind ES44AC 6094 and C44-9W 5126 was rolling passed the Wabtec/GE interchange at Justin, Texas. The name of this switch on the BNSF is Lambert. The locomotives on the interchange were BNSF rebuilt B40-8W’s 526 and 514 along with new Canadian National ET44AC 3173. This is a mile and a half north of Wabtec/GE’s Fort Worth plant, and at one time the track in the right foreground was the BNSF (ex-ATSF) main line between Fort Worth and Oklahoma City. BNSF eventually rerouted its main line, GE acquired a part of the old BNSF line for use as a connection and a test track, added a second track (on the left) and extended a single track a mile and a half to the north (going off on the right).
