Gads! How boring. I stopped by the old Burlington Racetrack this afternoon and guess what popped up. Another of the BNSF's 1700+ C44-9W's (according to WesternRails roster.). The next one I post to devArt will have to be a pretty special shot for me to post it.
The third unit is way more interesting. Makes me miss the variety of the good old days... all GP9's and F7's.
Oh! In case you were wondering... that's Yackley up on the bridge. You can get to trackside though a little forest in the back of a public park.
Great shot, but I do understand your point about the C44s. UP is the same way, especially with the unit coal trains. God they're monotonous. But I do get some spices in the flavors of SP bloody-nose C44s and some UP SD9043MACs. The locals are what keep me interested.
