After seeing this thing twice and in the lead both times, I guess its about time stuff doesn't go my way. I cant complain though! |

BNSF 6311 |
| Description: |
A miracle story if you may, the last time I saw this thing it was where the 123 was, and had red tape around the steps on all sides. I thought for sure it was done, but after seeing a video of it leading a Stack train in Chicago, I knew it was still running. And this day I was able to see it again! |

I dont usually post shots like this, but this unit was just too special to pass up. And since the details are clear and sharp, I think this is passable. Anyway, a rare find for me, as this is only the 4th KCS SD40-2 I have ever shot. |

A gem sits sidelined near the shops here at Northtown. This classic unit still displays its WC maroon paint, and you can see the patched over stripe quite clearly along the whole hood. For a diehard WC fan, this was definately a nice sight. |

Early Christmas/Whole next year present anyone? After getting interested in some of these units a few days back, Im given a gift to actually see one with my own eyes, and in Minnesota of all places. Surely, since being south of the border, this is one of the few times it has been in the snow since its Milwaukee days. |
