Remarks & Notes |
The BNSF Boron Local lead by BNSF 1574 and two other SD40-2Rs ( all rebuilt from SD45-2s) and a single GP39-2 shove a long cut of cars down Rich Spur, just west of Boron, CA for a mineral load out. While this is now spur trackage, it was once the mainline of the Mojave Sub before it was realigned in 1953 to make way for Edwards Air Force Base. |
