BNSF Railway (BNSF) 7869 - GE ES44DC
Photo Gallery
Our first proper train was NS 33G, sadly with only two engines. This train normally has a powermove of engines on the head end, but not today.

So, with that, it was back into Burlington proper to get the shot I had planned on all day; a downtown scene amongst all the brick buildings. Things were quiet which allowed me to quick check out the BNSF power. Three different paint schemes were sitting in the yard, one of which was a very worn Warbonnet Dash 9.

BNSF 7869 as the last of the power triple-header on the turn-table spur in the shadows of the 39th St auto bridge / yard over-pass (believe it or not, until a dozen years ago plus a few, it was all at-grade crossing through there).
BISF 7869 second out of three... or maybe five in
BNSF 4948 - BNSF 7869 - BNSF 6341 - BNSF 2307 - BNSF 2925 (not the prettiest of pictures) in an odd situation or optical illusion which looks like one of our lirtle local pair of yard engines twins are lashed between a trio of roaders and a line of mixed freight.
At Ellinor, a 4 pack of GE's lead an all spine car intermodal west, an increasingly rare thing to see.
BNSF 7869 leads this empty oil train north on the BNSF Hannibal Sub. as it rolls into Elsberry, Mo. just south of town.
BNSF 7869 and CEFX 6017 idle away in the Pacific / Dozier Siding on the lead of this freight on BNSF Cuba Sub.
On my first railfan trip and the first freight I get a nice BNSF train with a WarBonnet and a Norfolk Southern unit, plus two helpers to boot. Great way to start a trip.
A long BNSF train approaches the wye to head towards the Stockton Yard.
