A time when one could expect pretty much anything on the point of trains. All sorts of BN merger railroad power, most in original schemes, plus WP & a few leased SP GP35s. Thanks for posting.

Agree, KF was a very busy place with lots of interesting traffic, once I figured that out it was a regular visit on just about every road trip. + oh, ok, BN under the numbers this time.

I love the way BN renumbered and marked the merged locomotives, with a small "BN" stenciled on the side and a neat renumbering matching the existing paint, pretty much leaving everything else alone. Compare that to how Conrail did it to theirs six years later - crudely (and IMHO unnecessarily) painting out road names, logos and numbers with whatever paint was on hand (usually black).
