Pretty cool. My favorite locomotive… not many left anymore on the BNSF. 1 in good order and available to work, the BNSF 1551.

Was it common for those to not have snow plows? I notice that in your photos, none of them are equipped.

Nice trio. You probably meant to post this on Nostalgia and History. No big deal. Once there is a reply, you can't move it.

I remember the 6181 here in Omaha. Notice, no dynamic brakes, and this IS a former CB&Q unit.
