@junglejimc BN and Santa Fe were great companys both

Oklahoma Gas & Electric :P Those gondolas passed through my town (in Kansas) until about 1994 when they switched to the coalporters.
At first they ran down Santa Fe's Transcon from K.C. to Red Rock, OK with a mix of BN and SF engines. Then they changed the contract to joint UP/ATSF and started running them down the Topeka sub behind just SF engines at first, then UP engines. Now since the contract has changed, BNSF diesels once again pull them down the Transcon.

GREAT STUFF! HEY WHERE DID YOU GET THESE BURLINGTON NORTHERN VIDEOS?

Who'da think that this connection would become the countries busiest coal route today

The predecessor to ENRON tried to build a coal slurry pipeline from the coal fields to the southern power plants. The railroads interfered with their crossing of the right of ways and Enron sued them and WON...$400 MILLION in a trial that lasted over a year. UP and several others paid for their crimes.

Hey there! Cool video! Thanks for the upload! I wanted to let you know that the video must have been made after 1980, because the animated route map in the film includes the lines of the Frisco Railroad, which was acquired by the BN in November of 1980. Just a little info I thought I'd throw in :)

God damn, those SD40-2s and U30Cs are so...graceful.

This video is pimptastic! Lots of good old green power. GO BN!! Santa Fe never should have happened to the BN, they should have let the SF die.
