SD40 Class Leader! |
Description: |
With all of the SD40-2's stored around the country, Im quite amazed to find a few straight SD40's still going. This brought a smile to my face, as Ive always loved the BNSF 6300's. |

Classy Ride |
Description: |
My favorite fleet of engines on the BNSF at the moment, the unrebuilt SD40s. The 7908 led a Z Train past this yard earlier in the summer, but now it rests with a group of stored engines by the shops.. |

SD40's and SD45's have long been my favorite units, so Its nice to see the 6309 again, even if its in the storage lines. |

Description: |
A miracle story if you may, the last time I saw this thing it was where the 123 was, and had red tape around the steps on all sides. I thought for sure it was done, but after seeing a video of it leading a Stack train in Chicago, I knew it was still running. And this day I was able to see it again! |

After seeing the 6317 two days earlier, It was another nice surprise to catch sister unit 6316 at the shops. This one isn't fairing as well in paint color though! |

After getting my hopes up to shoot the SD40 in the "lead" when they cleaned out the shops, the only engine they didn't move was the one I wanted. Oh well I guess. |

WOWZERS! |

The ONLY consist in Santa Fe colors that could possibly get me excited! This train (ok, power move) had 3 STRAIGHT SD40s. Vintage 1960's stuff people. |
