.   .   .   even though this shot of Belen to Phoenix train MBELPHX, climbing eastbound at near Cosnino, AZ, was taken nineteen years ago, I guess it could still happen? Thus, on the Western Board.

Beautiful shot.  The Warbonnet looks great & 'Goat Boat' H1 Dash C44-9Ws still look lively and clean.

Technically, it could still happen today, but I don't think BNSF could cobble together a consist with a Warbonnet and an H1 C44-9W that aren't filthy and faded.

Well a few years back, the 4702 went into the drink in Wyoming's Wind River Canyon after hitting a rock the size of a 2-story house. Then re-emerged from the Topeka shops a year or two later in Orange and Black.
