Model Railroading > Living in the Past;; Black DiamondsDate: 07/19/14 02:49 Living in the Past;; Black Diamonds Author: funnelfan Had some fun down at the club last night running my BN era coal train. It wasn't planned, but fellow club member, "Wesolint" from youtube brought down the modern version of the same train with BNSF RD4 hoppers and DPU power. I didn't get any pics of his train though, but both trains were the exact same length. We were running the trains in both directions in a loads west, empties east fashion.

I've seen several re-numbered 60Ms in the Spokane area (1411, 1471, plus one other that had been repainted).
