I was running west on route 66 outside Kingman Arizona at 65 mph and got passed by this train. It is nice to see other units out here in the west......

BNSF Has every kind of Unit under the Sun ( Almost ) So far I have seen almost every leasing company and main name railroads including , NS , IC, CN, CSX, Ex-Conrail ( Would be qualified as a NS ) , KCS, TFM, MRL, and every type of unit too, GP20's GP60B's GP60's ,SD70M's , SD75I'S , SD40-2's , C44-9W's, ( I think I got them all ) Southern Pacific will live on forever in the hearts of the Red and Gray Railfans
Hey Rob,I know they have you working all the time, but stay in touch. You're missing a fine steam excursion this coming weekend.Hawk"First thing I remember knowin', was that lonesome whistle blowin'-And a yungun's dream of growing up to ride- On a freight train leavin' town, not knowin' where I'm bound. No-one could steer me right-But Mama tried."
>Hmmm, we at NS sometimes wonder how UP and BNSF operate as >we seem to have possesion of most of their locomotives. I've been seeing some different power in UP lashups in my neck of the woods lately.BNSF has always been a common sight, but lately I've also been seeing NS and Conrail. Don't often see them around here.Seems like there's quite a bit of swapping going on right now. -Jeff
