Tehachapi Veteran |
| Description: |
This veteran Santa Fe unit doubtless traversed the Tehachapi Loop many times for its former owner. Today the unit is stored at Northtown Yard, probably facing an uncertain future. |

These two golden oldies are currently parked amidst scores of other units at Northtown Yard. Will they ever turn a wheel again? |

This unit, along with an ex-Santa Fe GP30, were idling below the bridge when I came upon them. Love that vibrant Heritage 1 paint job. |

Waiting Below The Bridge |
| Description: |
Another view of BNSF 2876 that shows her GP30 mate. Quite a miracle to find one of those on a major railway in 2007! Raymond Avenue crosses on the bridge above at this location just east of St. Anthony Junction. |

God bless how slow BNSF has been in repainting pre-merger units! This Cascade Green classic at the Northtown diesel shop was a glorious sight to see. |
