BNSF Warbonnet Dash 9 754 serves as the last DPU on an Eastbound Port Stack
BNSF runs DL PA-1 190 DIT through Rushville MO on a Tuesday afternoon while on its way to Kansas City. The use of a warbonnet unit up front was a nice touch as the Alco was a former ATSF unit itself.
BNSF Railway locomotives number 6842 (a GE model ES44C4) and number 754 (a GE model C44-9W) push a load of steel coils westbound under the Main Street footbridge at Rolla in Phelps County, Missouri, on Monday morning 14 October 2019. The trackage is BNSFs Cuba Subdivision (ex-Frisco).

Next we did a coupe jonts through the yard. When we were sitting at Eire Haven watching the trains, the fakebonnet moved from the track at the fuel racks to the turntable track. This engine didnt move a single inch during the rest of the stay, but it stayed online.

BNSF 754 - BNSF 4910 lead pair below the 39th Street over-pass... in the last image before my battery gives up the ghost. Oops.

It was trying to be fifty degrees. Trying.
