    Nice shots, but two things-looks like the original AC traction units attached to a dynamometer car, probably EMD's in the first pic, and that McDonalds .59 cent cheeseburger billboard in the second pic!
    :p

    I would believe what you are seeing is most likely an array of sensors mounted on the trucks.

    The EMD test car is cool, but the real catch is the SD60MAC coupled onto it!

    See! That's what I have been saying! We should start a movement to reinstate the CB&Q. Who's with me! ;)

    Let's call it Qexit (for the Q in CB&Q?). Get it back out of BNSF.

    We'll purloin the E5A in the museum to make good with our plot. Shiny stainless steel varnish shall once again polish the rails! Muahahaha!!!:sneaky:

    But once we have succeeded, will the BNSF have to change its initials to... NSF?:confused::oops: :whistle:

    :D
