Fakebonnet and Swoosh         
BNSF 751 and 6189 are the trailing units on a westbound stack train as it passes the tail end of an ethanol train eastbound. 751 wears the famed Warbonnet scheme of BNSFs predecessor Santa Fe. This unit never operated under Santa Fe, however, having been built in 1997, two years after the Santa Fe-Burlington Northern merger. Units such as this Dash-9 are known by railfans as "Fakebonnets" for this reason.
