Unit #s are required to make that determination, or at the very least locomotive model

If you gave a time and direction (probably west) that you saw them, others could look at what you saw and likely give an answer.

I saw them too. Mostly 5300 and 5400 series Dash 9's, with a few H1 and Warbonnet Dash 9's mixed in.

Saw a 10 unit light power move head west through Cheney, WA here around noon. BNSF seems a little power short due to the cold weather, and they've been using all kinds of foreign power lately.
