a weird but great combonation. im fine with GEVOS expet that they are replacing most if not all other locomotives BNSF owns. i love the GEEPS save the geeps.
BNSF9250 2 years ago
They're temporarily replacing all the good stuff. When we get all the good stuff back, the GEVO's will just be something else to enjoy.
Yes, Geeps are good!
