History Fading10 viewsThe DPUs of this BNSF Railway manifest-train slam by as it makes its way south through Cortez California on the Stockton Subdivision. The Warbonnet is one of few that lasts today in its Super Chief-inspired paint scheme. Behind it is a unit wearing 'Heritage II' paint scheme which is hybrid of Santa Fe's Warbonnet and Great Northern's Empire Builder schemes. Both locomotives are General Electric C44-9W's which is the power of choice on BNSF's high-speed trainsPNWTransitFreak

Cruel Fate14 viewsAfter spending an afternoon in Napa with my family we began to head back, and found this off SR-12. The story of the NWP is one of conflict, irony and despair. In its modern times the NWP has been treated a stepchild in the communities that it once proudly served. The unit I'm standing on was one of many SD9s that are permanently stuck on this railroad. The NWP last run in the late 1990s at its full capacity and trailed off til 2000 when it was killed permanently. It's said to been reopened for a project called SMART, which has plans similar to NCTD's SPRINTER in southern California - that has yet to bear any fruit - http://nwprrhs.org/history.htm PNWTransitFreak
