Passenger Trains > A Cascade with a F59PHI for PowerDate: 01/27/15 13:44 A Cascade with a F59PHI for Power Author: MartyBernard Yesterday Cascades 501 and 516 had F59PHI 466 for power. Here's pictures of 501 with the Mount Baker train set at Vancouver, Washington. In the first photo BNSF GP39-2R #2752 is in a pocket at the south end of the freight yard. The bridge in the last two photos of the departing train is BNSF's over the Columbia River. The fog over the River obscures the opposite shore.
