BN 2085 is one of hundreds of GP38-2s built by EMD in the 1970s.

The power swap on this northbound train has been completed and BN 2085 is backing down into the yard and heading for the house.

BN's second Pacific Pride unit, wearing the heralds of seven heritage roads.

A BN train comes around the corner from Sumas into Burlington WA in June 1988. 2085 leads 1702 and 2579.

BN's Interbay Shops marked GP38-2 2085 as Pacific Pride II, the second unit (GP38 2075 being "PP I") to wear the heralds of seven of the road's predecessors (C&S, FW&D, SLSF, CB&Q, SP&S, NP, GN). It's shown here as power for the Anacortes Local, sitting next to MVB station.
