Diesel Symphony In The Midway
Title:  Diesel Symphony In The Midway
Description:  BNSF C449W 4717 (in the BNSF initial Warbonnet), BNSF 9-40CW 984 (in Hertiage I paint), and MRL SD45-2 302 are on the point of a westbound freight. Catching 302 was a treat, since according to Trains Magazine last year MRL's 45's were going to be replaced by SD70s. Yet there she is, obviously returning to MRL rails via the BNSF. Lucky day!

So Long, My Friends
Title:  So Long, My Friends
Description:  Two veteran units await their fate while parked in a small string of stored units (and one snowplow) north of the University Avenue bridge at Northtown. New paint did not ensure the 1720 would roll for the BNSF, its third owner, forever. Thank heavens one of her brethren escaped to the Minnesota Transportation Museum. If only that 45-2 ahead of the 1720 could make such an escape.
