NM RailRunner southbound
Author: soundman

NMRX 109 came to Denver on Sunday, and went south today with a manifest freight. Maybe one of our well-connected readers can give us a train symbol for BNSF 5392.

That puppy would look less top heavy with "E-unit" trucks

I rode behind one of those from Belen to Albquerque at 79 MPH. Good ride.

Here is the 109 passing through Colorado Springs this afternoon.
Sure is a neat looking engine.
Thanks for the tip soundman.

But will they go "Meep-Meep"?

I'm sure these giant birds must look pretty neat flying through the night.

Does this mean that Motive Power Inc. is giving New Mexico the bird?

In a lash-up like this, is the runner MU'd with the rest of the motors or is along for the ride?

When new passenger locomotives are being delivered like this they are always dead-in-transit. It's probably not even quite ready for service yet.

No, "meep-meep" is the warning sound when a Railrunner train's doors are about to close. Honest.
