Western Railroad Discussion > Something Different X 2

On the way to work this morning I caught the BNSF 6767 east departing Mandan.

1. It was leading a baretable - very rare for these subs.
2. The second unit, 7695, had the yellow BNSF logo. I know there's a nickname for this but I can't remember it.

One other note - this photo ws taken around 7:00 a.m. FACING SOUTH (sun angle only possible in the North country in this time of year)

Very true in the USA, but Austrailians would have a different opinion of south-facing sun angles!

So would the Kiwi's mate!

If he's an Aussie, he's a 'roo.  As in kangaroo.  A kiwi is a New Zealander (next islands over). I know, my girlfriend is one, mate.
