Nostalgia & History > First BN GE Techno ToasterDate: 02/05/05 18:10 First BN GE Techno Toaster Author: BNSFhogger B32-8 5499 is leaving Skykomish in August, 1985. I liked the looks of these. I once made the mistake of putting one on the point of a consist I was building at Interbay Roundhouse. The foreman told me to "Get that piece of Sh** off the point!!!! The hogger will scream and holler about having to ride in that thing." Oh well, everyone can't enjoy a unique locomotive.

I recall a trip back in June of 1984, seeing two of these with two cabless B30-7As and a SD40-2 leading BN #23 going thru Berwyn, IL. See here for the pic, courtesy of my ol' pal, Ron: =) http://rlehmer.50megs.com/photos/midwest/bn5497_berwyn.html Cheers, Harry Date: 12/18/15 17:55 Re: First BN GE Techno Toaster Author: pmack |
