Beastly Lash-Up!!! IC Blues and BNSF Executive Lead Manifest at Blue Island

One Word, WOW. A pretty damn good lash-up by any railroads standard. IC 2465(C40-8W), IC 2458(C40-8W), and BNSF 9726(SD70MAC) lead a manifest south on the IHB connector to the CN Elsdon Subdivision.

And yes, I am aware that the engines say CN on them, but they have an IC reporting mark.

thats true mike, but some of them were ordered in that scheme for BNSF after the merger.

I'm pretty sure BN aquired around 300 before the merger. Hence why you can buy so many models with only the BN logo, and you can see photos of them with the BN scheme.

i just want bnsf to be the way it used to be and give me a chance. stupid oakway lease return.

I would say so, most railroads are pulling out engines from storage, so thats definitely a good sign.
