BNSF 6887 with a little Santa Fe flair...
Author: MrMRL

Caught the BNSF 6887 (ES44C4, delivered 01/12) near Los Angeles a couple days back, 10/2/21. Available photograpic evidence shows these vinyl stickers to have been added some time within the last year or so. Too bad they ended up just a bit crooked.

In the military aircraft world there are things called "zaps". Usually your squadron patch on a vinyl sticker, usually about 3 or 4 inches across, that get's applied to any visiting military aircraft that visits your base.
Usually applied some place like the inside of a nose landing gear door. This looks like a bigger version and was probably applied by a railfan employee.
