Northern Pacific Lives |
| Description: |
Even though the NP has gone for nearly 40 years, this NP flat doesn't appear to be that old. Here it is seen as it is about to be humped. |

This little guy has been at Northtown since Jan 11th, and its safe to say its days are done on the BN. However, it is still a great looking GP9! |

How things change |
| Description: |
Ten years ago this power set would have been seen pulling stack trains or any general freight, but now these SD40-2s are going to spend their last days working the hump. |

In this shot, three spartan cab survivors on the BNSF wait for the next call to duty. This was a welcomed sight in the sea of surrounding GEs. |

Back at Home |
| Description: |
This old NP gone is at a familiar place, the old NP Northtown Yard. This was a great catch, it must be over 40 years old! |

Smoking it up Santa Fe Style |
| Description: |
This former Santa Fe GP38 blows the carbon out of its system as it works the Grove Job. This smoke lasted for about a minute as it shoved about 50 cars down the old NP passenger main. I bet you'll never see a gevo smoke like this! |
