    Hi Santa Fe fans. While waiting for the 4449 steam special in Washington, caught this unpatched warbonnet on the BNSF. I guess it is partially patched, got a pumpkin :( colored panel on it.

    Y'know, what is the Santa Fe/Burlington Northern sentiment? Being mostly an Espee fan, it seems to me like BN or ATSF fans got a good deal. The pumpkin scheme looks pretty sharp to me and most of both roadnames were kept in the merger. Not like the borg that swallows its victims whole...

    Interesting setting. Could be Arizona or New Mexico? [​IMG] Only in Washington state can you have such varied climates for photo settings. From arid (desert), to rain forest. Oceans, mountains, rivers. What a place to railfan.

    :D

    Yeah, when the air conditioner goes out they just grab a working one off the shelf and plug it in. I have seen plenty of Pumpkins with red and silver AC units too.
