BNSF 9970 makes some noise at Greenland, CO as it hauls a loaded coal train up the Palmer Divide on a gorgeous February Afternoon.
Man i miss shooting these MACs.
Two macs lead manifest from the Barge in Whittier with some great snow caps standing high above their pair. This was a great afternoon for trains on the arm.
Green Day - Waiting

I've been waiting a long time
For this moment to come, I'm
Destined for anything at all
Downtown, lights will be shining
On me, like in a diamond
Ring out under the midnight hour
Well, no one can touch me now, well
And I can't turn my back, it's
Too late, ready or not at all
Well, I'm so much closer than
I have ever known
Wake up!
Dawning of a new era calling
Don't let it catch you falling
Ready or not at all
Oh, so close enough to taste it
Almost, I can embrace this
Feeling on the tip of my tongue
Well, I'm so much closer than
I have ever known
Wake up!
Better thank your lucky stars
Say, hey, hey
Well, I'm so much closer than
I have ever known
Wake up!
You better thank your lucky stars
Say, hey, hey!
I've been waiting a lifetime
For this moment to come, I'm
Destined for anything at all
Dumbstruck, color me stupid
Good luck, you're gonna need it
Where I'm going, if I get there at all
Wake up!
And better thank your lucky stars
Southbound LG1 slows to a stop at Caneyville to meet its counterpart loaded train on a sunny winter day.

Did you know that macaws have a highly flexible tongue supported by a bone, allowing them to use it almost like a hand?

Happy Caturday, Everyone!
A trio of BNSF SD70MAC's meet at the north end of the siding at Loveland, Colorado, on May 31, 2019. This is along BNSF's Front Range Subdivision between Denver and Cheyenne.
CSX Q17627 heads north through Slaters Lane with a pair of SD70MACs, one each representing the newest and oldest orders on the CSX roster. These single stack intermodals still run up the RF&P and EMD power is again becoming more common here, but this afternoon northbound move is a thing of the past. The equivalent I032 today will generally pass at the crack of dawn.
In what was a very odd move, a pair of BNSF SD70MACs, still in BN "Executive" colors, lead loaded CSX coal train N910 down into the Thornapple River valley. This train of Powder River coal, which was destined for Consumer's JH Campbell plant in West Olive, would normally run up the Grand Rapids sub to Holland and continue north to West Olive. The details are fuzzy to me now, but I believe the train was re-routed "the long way" via Toledo and Plymouth because of a derailment on the NS near Porter, IN where the GR sub connects to the NS Chicago district. I want to say this was the only time I ever saw this happen. Also, I absolutely loved those cream and green MACs with the classic BNSF logo on the nose!

One of the four remaining BN macs are seen leading C-NAMPEK through Peoria, IL. Notice the rustic industries in the background
One of a dwindling number of former Burlington Northern SD70MACs, BNSF 9669, leads N800 north/east under the coal tower at New Buffalo. Though its paint was faded and its K3 horn was sounding rather sickly, it was still a treat to see this old workhorse leading in this day and age.
