Brian Stevens Date: 02/21/18 20:36 Re: The Arctic Blast Continues On The BNSF Author: BoostedFridge Nice catches Larry! That CPRS AC4400CW barely has any decals left on it.
Could anyone with the connections look up the symbol for the EB that BNSF 286 was leading? Date: 02/21/18 21:17 Re: The Arctic Blast Continues On The BNSF Author: Griggs Ritzville Wrote:

I believe that is iron ore from the Red Dog mine in Alaska, destined for the Teck-Cominco smelter in Trail, BC.

Ronda Thomas Date: 02/22/18 08:09 Re: The Arctic Blast Continues On The BNSF Author: bmarti7 Another outstanding series Larry. For anyone interested - Larry's home is above the 4238 in photo 10. (Sorry Larry if I'm giving away a trade secret). I think most of us wish we had a perch like that.
