Eastbound BNSF Intermodal Train at Shawnee, KS
They're only new once! A quartet of ES44C4's bring BNSF Train Z ALTWSP9 21A past the former Santa Fe station site of Zarah, KS on the BNSF Emporia Sub. on their first revenue run. These engines, built earlier that month at the GE Ft. Worth, TX plant, will be among the last Tier 3 GEVO's produced.
To use a sometimes trite phrasing, you could smell the paint as they rolled by--seriously. Regardless of color or owner, a new locomotive is a new locomotive. Thanks to the Little Birdie Phoam Network for the heads up on these.
Locomotives: BNSF 8377, BNSF 8375, BNSF 8376, BNSF 8374
