BNSF has been doing some rebuild work on these units, and indeed, this unit is now designated as a GP60M-3. Email Questions or Comments to the Webmaster or add a comment to the picture.

Among them was this MRL SD70ACe. Now owned by BNSF after the acquisition of MRL at the start of 2024, MRL units are showing up in Denver relatively frequently.

The term "catfish" for NS units comes from the white striping on the nose and the black overall color of the unit, giving a bit of a catfish look.

Would have preferred a shot that included the nose, but you take what you can get! Was cool also getting the Canadian Pacific unit in the shot as well!

Photo ID: 112268 Date Shot Photo By Tuesday, April 22, 2025 Kevin Morgan Location Times Viewed BNSF Engine House Denver, CO 66 (Add a Comment) Subdivision Railroad Yard Shots NS Unfortunately, this Savannah and Atlanta NS heritage unit was spotted in darn near the worst possible location on the engine tracks at BNSF's facility in Denver. The power pole and wires made on one side, and string of BNSF units on the adjacent track on the conductor's side, made it impossible to get a "clean" shot of the unit. Still, I was glad I had the opportunity to get a few shots. Email Questions or Comments to the Webmaster or add a comment to the picture. Photo ID: 112267 Date Shot Photo By Tuesday, April 22, 2025 Kevin Morgan Location Times Viewed BNSF Engine House Denver, CO 82 (Add a Comment) Subdivision Railroad Yard Shots NS It is not particularly often that Norfolk Southern units make their way to the Denver area. It does happened occasionally when power sharing is happening. I was lucky enough to catch the Savannah and Atlanta heritage unit, sitting amongst a bevy of other units near the BNSF engine shop. This is the first NS heritage unit I have actually shot in 11 years! The unit came in on the Valmy, NV bound coal load, but was removed for fueling. It's possible it could be added to the train for the trip west to Nevada. Email Questions or Comments to the Webmaster or add a comment to the picture.

This unit, BNSF 4706, is one of the few that actually received the warbonnet scheme with "BNSF" lettering after the merger, prior to the original Heritage scheme being decided upon.

In the morning sun, it is very clear that BNSF's original "Heritage" scheme was indeed a dark green and orange, rather than the modern black and orange. BNSF 2371 started life as Forth Worth and Denver in June 1980. To date, it has not had a major rebuild, and is still standard GP38-2.
