What if? BNSF "H4" B30-7A drawing
Author: SantaFe9820

I ended up spending way more time than I intended on this, so it's way sloppier than my normal work. But I decided to do up my B30-7A in BNSF's H4 scheme, as if they were still on the roster today. The swoosh on the long hood is larger than what I intended but I don't want to invest any more time into this one.

Well then there always was the possibility that BNSF could have taken over the OC&E line before Weyerhauser
abandoned it and that scheme could have been put on these!

The 400 series just made sense to fit into the prototypical contemporary roster and I couldn't resist! haha

Interesting idea! Might have to sketch out a set with the MK rebuilt U25Bs

I always thought those units looked better set up long hood forward, looks like a hammerhead. (since it's cabless, I guess it doesn't really matter)

Yup, and it looked pretty interesting one day on the point of a Northbound BN train coming into Trinidad.
Hang around long enough and you'll see mostly everything.
