Western Railroad Discussion > Ex-BN 3162 on BNSF Local 664

Yesterday evening at Agency, Iowa, I caught the eastbound BNSF local freight train 644. This train travels from Eddyville, Iowa to Galesburg, Illinois.

1) BNSF 2540 leads the train around a bend.

2) The three engines on the train were:
BNSF 2540 GP39-3
BNSF (ex-BN) 3162 GP50
BNSF 526 B40-8W

3) From what I've read, 3162 was one of five GP50s built with an extended cab. This is the first time I've caught one.
