Remarks & Notes |
It seems that before the mega-mergers of the 90s dogcatching was a relatively rare episode in getting trains over the road. Thereafter, it became commonplace and a limo service was as necessary in keeping the railroad moving as locomotives. In the fall of 1998 two westbounds are getting re-crewed as traffic is backed up all the way into Lincoln. The surge in Powder River coal traffic had much to do with this insolvency at the time. BNSF had a bright new image here, that has since been dumbed-down to a dreary orange and black. The BN green still looked at home on these former Burlington Route rails. |
