Western Railroad Discussion > flight arriving on track twoDate: 02/22/18 19:17 flight arriving on track two Author: tc The W/B fuselage train had a couple extra horses on it today at belgrade MT. It was interesting to see the two different models at the tail of the train
Date: 02/22/18 19:35 Re: flight arriving on track two Author: Auburn_Ed Looks to be a 737-Max, the long one.

Knew it was about the Boeing 737 fuselages beibg transported by rail. Great pix, too. And the snow is sooooo beautiful....
Those two fuselages are, indeed, very different. (thought the differences would be quite small, and hard to see, but they sure aren't!) Date: 02/22/18 21:11 Re: flight arriving on track two Author: kcmbha there should be a "like" button
Date: 02/22/18 22:48 Re: flight arriving on track two Author: MrMRL Nice!! Love the subtle variety on the 737s shown above, really one of Boeing’s shining stars in the aero industry. Giving me the itch to break out my Protoloads models for a trip around the layout...
Mr. MRL Date: 02/23/18 13:13 Re: flight arriving on track two Author: DKay Might even be an Australian P8.Boeing were/are aiming for 52 of these out the door a month this year.

Are there enough unique differences in the fuselage alone to tell a 737 Next Gen from the equivalent 737 MAX variant? I really can't tell until I see the wings and engines. I'd agree that last fuselage looks like a P-8. It may already have been mentioned here on TO but the 10,000th 737 fuselage departed Wichita for Renton on February 14. niagara484 Date: 02/24/18 12:38 Re: flight arriving on track two Author: kansas1 "Now arriving from Wichita...."
Date: 02/24/18 19:49 Re: flight arriving on track two Author: wirelessenabled I thought after the accident in Montana in 2014 that they were going to limit the number of fuselages per train to three.
Date: 02/24/18 21:12 Re: flight arriving on track two Author: dan and after the tornado in Nebraska, but it wasn't practical
