BNSF "Snoqualmie Pass" |
| Description: |
The "Snoqualmie Pass" is named after a locale on the Milwaukee Road's route through the Cascades that BNSF predecessor Burlington Northern owned for a short while after the Milwaukee pulled out from the West Coast in 1980. BN subsequently abandoned the route through the pass. I find it surprising a BNSF business train car would bear the name of a place that no longer is part of a rail system. |

Horray For The Santa Fe! |
| Description: |
While it is sad the Santa Fe left us in 1995, the memory of that legendary railroad still lives on in units like ex-AT&SF 2842. She now sports a BNSF number, yes, but her paint is otherwise still pure Santa Fe. |

Memories Of The Burlington Northern |
| Description: |
Who would have guessed units like ex-BN 9701 would be the Burlington Northern's pinnacle of motive power, a last hurrah before that mega merger pioneer passed itself into the pages of history via a mega merger? 9701's BN logos are now gone, replaced by "swoosh" logos below the cab windows and zilch on the nose, but her paint still echos BN's last hours of glory. |

Always Nice To Catch A Warbonnet |
| Description: |
Sure is always nice to catch a Warbonnet! Usually tree foliage all but obscures the view here down by the County 15/Highway 12 overpass, but early spring is another story. This is an eastbound grain or potash job whose crew is awaiting the passage of a westbound freight before proceeding on into Minneapolis on a blustery but mild April afternoon. |
