Western Railroad Discussion > I swear I'm not seeing things...Date: 07/01/25 12:09 I swear I'm not seeing things... Author: crazy_train_999 ...but at around 17:15 CT last night (Monday, 06/30/25), I saw what appeared to be a freshly-painted, HIGHLY Milwaukee Road inspired GP coupled to a BNSF unit working aroud Ash Grove Cement in the Rosedale area of Kansas City, KS (BNSF Fort Scott Subdivision, around MP 3.5). While I couldn't get a good look as I was driving NB on I-35, and I couldn't make it out, it had a white unit number near where the dynamic brake blister would be.
I haven't been able to track anything down online yet, so for my own sanity, can anyone please confirm I did, in fact, see the above locomotive? Any additional details about it will be appreciated, as well. Thank you in advance! Date: 07/01/25 12:56 Re: I swear I'm not seeing things... Author: ShortlinesUSA HRMX 9120 moving from the Mt.

Branson Scenic had to pause operations for a bit because they couldn't run the train due to lack of motive power. Operations are set to resume July 3rd.
