For whatever reason, the white face is gone and instead it is a green face! Email Questions or Comments to the Webmaster or add a comment to the picture.

Turns out it's not a 25% chance. In fact, the odds are next to zero that the MAC was in the lead. BNSF has a policy that if there are AC and DC units mixed on a train, a DC unit must be on the point. If the AC unit was on the point, the engineer could actually burn out the traction motors on the DC units without realizing it from the AC unit on the point. With the DC unit leading, the risk of burning out the traction motors is greatly reduced. Email Questions or Comments to the Webmaster or add a comment to the picture.

The quartet of EMD's are currently pulling the train into the siding at Irondale to meet a couple of westbounds. Email Questions or Comments to the Webmaster or add a comment to the picture.

There was a time not long ago when you could count on seeing GE units putting on a great show, kicking up a ton of thick black smoke. Well, here we see a coal load doing just that. But it is the SD70ACe that is spitting out the black stuff! Email Questions or Comments to the Webmaster or add a comment to the picture.
