Nostalgia & History > Warbonnet Wednesday.

On Septqmber 1, 1998 I was aboard BNSF car Glacier View on the 1998 BNSF Employee Appreciation special at Chillicothe Illinois.  The dispatcher ran three trains by us before we were allowed to depart westbound.  This video of the second train led by a Santa Fe Warbonnet along with a BN cabless B30-7a and a BN SD40-2 that made for a colorful consist.  The eastbound train had it all; double stacks, TOFC, COFC and auto racks.

Thanks for viewing.
