SD40 Class Leader!
Title:  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
Title:  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..

BNSF 6311
Title:  BNSF 6311
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!

BNSF 6316
Title:  BNSF 6316
Description:  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.
