1996 BNSF promotional video?
Author: technoty

According to Pacific RailNews, there was a meeting on April 18, 1996 for the Burlington Northern Santa Fe Corporation, which was when BNSF announced the order of its first new Dash 9s. The meeting also had a clip probably featuring the new railroad at the time with a song by Lee Greenwood called "Stand up and Wave at Her, the Burlington Northern Santa Fe." It appears to be the definite successor of the previous year's "God Bless the Santa Fe" clip.

Are there any other known details from the BNSF clip, or is there a way to watch it?

That's the "God Bless the Santa Fe" video, which precedes the BNSF video I'm looking for.

Oh well, it was a pretty good 11 and a half minutes of something I'd never seen, maybe someone else can find the right one, sorry about that.

Not sure about the clip you saw, but the BNSF released a 12+ minute VHS video, with a copyright date of 1999, entitled -- "To Move a Nation -- 150 Years of Service." Lee Greenwood's music was again used. The BNSf offered them for sale, but I do not remember exactly how that was done.

The BN released a 14 minute VHS video, copyright date of 1995, entitled "Celebrating 25 Years on Burlington Northern, Inc." Regrettably, I do not remember how it was sold either.
