Snow is Here
Title:  Snow is Here
Description:  The snow started falling the night before, so I knew it would be a good day to go shoot some trains. Here is the BNSF Big Lift Local. There used to be a local working out of Colorado Springs but they consolidated it. Maybe when traffic picks up again they will return the Colorado Springs Local.

FRISCO
Title:  FRISCO
Description:  Here is one of BNSF sd40-2's that is ex-bn, which was ex-Frisco. You can actually see a little red from the sill stripe and the word FRISCO is seen coming through the paint in rust red! As far as I know Frisco only had 10 of these, so this is very rare equipment. Pretty cool catch.
