Here are some recent BNSF photos that I have taken.
This was a very nice lash-up. Three BN Geeps head west through rural Ransom. GP9B 1701 is second engine, one of only three. I love this location.
A nice pair of Bluebonnets, 2514 and 2866, lead the local through Joliet Union Station. ATSF Caboose 784 was at the back of the train.
Very nice older power heads west through rural Coal City. Santa Fe Bluebonnet GP30 2417, a BN GP39E and a Santa Fe Bluebonnet B23-7 was the power.
Some more very nice older power heads west through Lockport. Santa Fe Bluebonnet B23-7 4258 with a very nice horn, an EMDX GP38-2 and a BNSF GP38-2 was the power.
BNSF 5309 and AC4400CW 5645, running down the Ex-CB&Q Mainline, cross over the Chicago - Los Angeles Transcon in Galesburg.
BNSF 5045 highballs through rural Verona.
BNSF 4751 highballs through rural Coal City.
BNSF 4542, running on the Chicago - Los Angeles Transcon, passes under the Ex-CB&Q Mainline at Galesburg.
BNSF 4404 highballs through rural Coal City.
Enjoy. Take care everyone.
