BN GP9 #1959 - Burlington Northernneb
Title:  BN GP9 #1959 - Burlington Northernneb
Description:  Burlington Northern GP9 #1959 was built by EMD in January of 1954 as Chicago, Burlington & Quincy GP9 #274. Upon the merger, it was renumbered BN 1959 and then later sold to Copper Basin Rwy as their #208. Current status is unknown but with the longevity of most GP9's, I would bet its still working! The photo was taken by rail fan Evans and is now in my rr collection.

BN GP9 #1758 - Burlington Northern
Title:  BN GP9 #1758 - Burlington Northern
Description:  Standing alone in the Missoulu, MT yard on this wintry day is Burlington Northern GP9 #1758. The loco was built in January of 1958 as Northern Pacific GP9 #348. Upon the merger, it was first renumbered BN 1758, then rebuilt & renumbered BN GP28M #1529 and finally onto the BNSF roster as #1529. It was spotted in 2023 now wearing the BNSF orange/yellow/black paint scheme and still working for the BNSF after nearly 65 years so far! This color slide was taken by rail fan A. Burns and is now in my rr collection.
