For my 1000th post, Here is the result of a Trek to Temple, Texas today. Sitting southbound in the Moody, Texas siding is BNSF 4723. I actually was fixing to dismiss as another H2, until the numbers could be seen. I pulled over post haste! It appears to be hoglawed- not a soul in the cab. Heads up you simmer/railfans from Temple, Texas south. Now the pics.

The last time anyone saw it at Tehachapi was around 9 p.m. on Friday, October 11th, 2002, heading for Richmond.

I wish they'd send it over on one of their run throughs that goes from memphis to Dayton or Memphis to Cleveland TX and back. I'd like to see it once.

Sorry, it runs only in the Mid-West and on Marias Pass. Yes, i saw it in Grand Rapids Minnesota a few weeks ago.

I live in Sealy, Texas which is about 45 miles from Houston there is a siding yard three tracks used by BNSF, they travel alot over there, most of the times I have seen SF, BN and BNSF engines. Whenever I see BNSF engine I looking for loco number 4723 to take a photo of the loco, so far havn't seen one.Blazer26

RE: MSTS err...BNSF 4723 spotted, Moody, Texas

If the cars are loaded, it was probably the M-GALHOU from Galesburg, IL to Houston, TX. 4723 went through here over the weekend on a westbound manifast, although the BNSF SD40-2 behind it wasn't in the consist (least isn't listed on the lineup (had two other C44-9Ws behind it). I've seen it so many times it's nothing exciting for me anymore. Another rumor is going around about the MSTS decal coming off within the year.Austin S.
