The railroad was formed in 1998 after most railroads in the country were privatized. Recently, Ferromex ordered several new ES44AC's from General Electric. One such GEVO is seen here on a westbound Denver to Provo manifest. Email Questions or Comments to the Webmaster or add a comment to the picture.

Some units have the typical two-pane wind shield, while some have a three-pane wind shield. I personally prefer the two-pane as seen here!

The unit is wearing an Operation Lifesaver scheme. The text on the long hood beneath "Operation Lifesaver" reads "Saving Lives at America's Highway-Rail Crossings." The text in the circle to the right reads "25 Years, Operation Lifesaver". Red text printed on the white circle itself reads "You're Our Living Proof. 1972-1997." Only about ten such units received this special scheme. Email Questions or Comments to the Webmaster or add a comment to the picture.

So, I try to get as many shots as I can of these beauties! BNSF 2815 is now designated as a GP39M (ex-GP30) and BNSF 2926 is now designated as a GP39E (ex-GP39-2).

In 1986, Burlington Northern leased 100 (EMD 9000 to 9099) SD60's from EMD through Oakway Inc. Twenty years later, these units are still in remarkably good shape, considering they are still in their original paint! Email Questions or Comments to the Webmaster or add a comment to the picture.

BNSF 7789 leads the HDENKCK-07 (Denver to Kansas City) south toward the Joint Line. The front of the unit is evidence of the snowy winter the mid-west has had.

More often, rebuilt GP30's, GP35's or SD40-2's are used for switching. However, you do run across a classic switcher from time to time. Such is the case here with SW10, BNSF 3630.

Burlington Northern leased all 100 units on a long-term basis. EMD 9000 to EMD 9099 are still on BNSF's roster twenty years after being delivered.

Most of these experimental or temporary schemes have been replaced. However, BNSF 2911 still wears a rather unique scheme. A slightly off-green paint was used to cover up the old herald and number. The unit is currently assigned as the Golden Switcher. Email Questions or Comments to the Webmaster or add a comment to the picture.

BNSF still had a supply a reflective decals and they wanted to dispose of them by applying them to engines rather than simply throwing them away. BNSF 7728 is one such example.

A close second is the (very similar) scheme of the 100 "Oakway" SD60 leased to Burlington Northern in the late 1980's. Those units are still on the BNSF today, in relatively good condition!
