While BNSF has not followed other Class 1 railroads in repainting some engines in a "heritage" scheme, they painted two units that look extremely classy for the semiquincentnnial celebration of the United States. The two units are numbered 1776 and 2026, with 2026 seen here on the east end of a BNSF Employee Appreciation Special, crossing the Niobrara River near Marsland, NE.
