Ex-BNSF 6807 Leads K928 |
| Description: |
Not often we get a whiteface BN unit like this in the lead on the flyash train, which is passing Taft Yard. That GE CW is right where it needs to be :-) |

BNSF 6851: One Year Later |
| Description: |
Approx one year ago, this locomotive was leading long hood forward & collided with a tanker in Commerce City. This has a lot to do with why Southern/N&W geared their locomotives to lead long hood forward. |

BNSF 6893 w/AOE Coaches |
| Description: |
I asked around & never got an answer, but this train was seen sitting by the tower at BNSF's yard in Denver with what appears to be coaches from the now-re-defunct American Orient Express. An announcement that the reboot of the luxury train was cancelled came about a week after this shot. Pretty sure I saw them in UP's North Yard a few days prior. |

Q258 w/HLCX 7149 |
| Description: |
Another one worth writing home about. It's taken a good many years for me to get this one leading, and only by default today. Crew had to go well out of their way to run the wye at Stanton for this as the CSXT motor "looked like it was in a trainwreck" according to crew. Legend also has it this motor came to the Helm fleet by default as BN wrecked one before shipping it. Flares on hood were retrofitted for BN's natural gas program. The other unit in that project, 7890, still works for BNSF & also passed by Taft in January (in darkness!) |

| Description: |
A few things to note here at "Rachel's" by the wye in Taft: in the foreground is Q258's power, CSXT 8210 has black numberboards on the long hood & to the lower left of the image you see K929's power. The flyash train (K928/929) generally runs to Dyer, but on this occasion, ran to Arcadia for SGLR & the power came back light from Winston on O682. |
