Pyro, I must have just missed you! Spent the weekend in GlacierPark, and got a few shots of BNSF in the pass area.

I changed this one out since it is also found on RP.net. Here's a new pic of an intermodal headed west through my favorite spot on the BNSF, Ellinor Jct. As you can see, the searchlight signals found here are about to be replaced. In fact, it wouldn't shock me if they were history as I type this.

Here's a shot of the signal bridge in Lebo. I'm trying to photograph these A-frame style bridges before BNSF rips them down and replaces them with traffic lights on masts.

Is this BNSF's imitation of a former Milwaukee Road "bandit" scheme? Here's a stack train pulling out of the Emporia, Ks. yard.

Here's the triple track signal bridge at NR Jct in Emporia. It's actually taken in the same spot as the bandit, but facing the other way.

Here's my first ever picture of a BNSF GEVO unit. This train was really moving if you can't tell!

And the entire train was made up of these grain hoppers, so this is my first shot of the new BNSF logo! These cars must be on their first revenue trip, as they are loaded, but are so shiny, you can see reflections off of them!
