Allan Love Jr General I like it. 9/3/2009 8:42:31 PM
Michael Richmond General BNSF seems to go too far with this swoosh. I know its their new logo and all, but just watch, this here will be the Heritage 4. 9/3/2009 8:50:15 PM
Robby Gragg General Now that's a nice looking patch job. Pretty cool how they used a matching painted logo instead of a green one! 9/3/2009 10:25:55 PM
Maddie Farnsworth General THAT'S COOL!!! It's nice to see that BNSF tries to keep it's power looking nice when doing repaints, unlike some roads that just slap a one color does not fit all patch on it. 9/4/2009 12:44:41 AM
Virgil Fitzpatrick General OK, this is new. But one question comes to mind. WHY would BNSF want another ragged out GP38 when their roster is filled with aging 4axles anyway???? While I credit the uniqueness, WHY is the question 9/4/2009 4:17:25 AM
Brandon M. Smith General Why did they buy these esepecially when they have the B40-8's in storage. It's interesting but seems to be a waste of money. 9/4/2009 8:42:16 AM
Atlanta Rails General I agree that this seems like a total waste of money. But on the otherhand this is definetly a cool patch job! Reminds me of the CN ex-LMS units. 9/4/2009 4:04:13 PM
Bernie Feltman General What a catch, Jeff 9/5/2009 2:51:02 PM
Jonelle DeFelice General No one has said where the unit came from. It doesn't even look like a patch! 9/7/2009 4:07:08 PM
J. McCann General That has to be an Ex-Conrail Unit. 9/9/2009 3:56:41 PM
Stephen Moore General Jonelle has a point but its still awesome 10/5/2009 4:38:33 PM
Ashley Rodriguez General the reason they got these over the older gp60 & b40-8 because standard cab is easyer to switch and the control stand is much better,ask me how i know. 10/13/2009 4:40:34 PM
David Nutter General Great shot! 4/24/2013 3:11:21 AM
