Any foreign units on the BNSF lately?
Author: MO-PAC

Hello All:

I was wondering if anyone has seen any foreign units on the BNSF lately. I wen through Barstow on Amtrak #4 and saw some NS and Conrail power, and my brother yesterday saw a CN GP40 yesterday in Fullerton. Just curious to see if anything else cool is floating around.

Thanks

Chris C

There are currently a little over 100 foriegn units on BNSF floating around out there now. Your brother probably saw the CN 5252 yesterday which is now on P-LACCHI5-05A in Arizona now. The only unusual one might be considered the DWP 5905, on G-DDCVAW9-03a at Casper,WY.. The rest are pretty much all NS, CSX, UP, and 'normal' CN/IC/GTW.

I saw TFM Super-7 #2320 through OKC as the second unit on a V-train behind a pumpkin DASH-9 a month or two ago. It was REAL ugly, imho. If anyone is interested, let me know and I'll post a pic after the weekend bandwidth rush passes.

Not real recent, but here's an interesting visitor:

Okay, so maybe it's a UP train, but many a BNSF rolls through the same spot. Two CSXers on December 29, 2001 at Riverside, CA.

Have had several coming by the house in the last couple of weeks.
2 CN's nad an EMD leaser in a 6 unit set and an IC unit (OLS) on a train a couple of days later. always the occasional CSX or UP unit.

CN 5252 was up Cajon early Saturday afternoon. I was on Hill 582 to see it pass.

Thanks for the replys....

I live pretty close to ABo and Belen and I rarely see any foreign units there. I'm not sure if they are keeping them West of here or if I'm just not going out enough.

Sorry Hunny, I guess I may be out a bit more often!!

Thanks
