Nostalgia & History > Early BNSF in LouisianaDate: 02/22/21 07:38 Early BNSF in Louisiana Author: SPJoe BNSF (H1) GP50 3184, BN B30-7AB 4042, BN B30-7AB 4076 at the BNSF Lafayette La Yard 90's. BN had over 100 of these B-units but, they were interesting power for South Louisiana at the time.

In the mid 80's, it seemed like every train had two 40-2's and a B unit for power. I suspect they were returned to the lessor when the 15 year lease expired.
