BN 6680 At Ephrata

Brian says:
"Westbound BN train 195 passing through Ephrata, WA on 5-4-85 with units 6680/4002/6328/8097 (SD45/B30-7A/SD40-2/SD40-2)."
BN 4002 is an interesting locomotive, one of 54 cabless B30-7A's locomotives built for BN in 82. Evidently ended up in Brazil.
ReplyDeleteJohn, Ephrata
Sure miss the Cascade Green era, always looked cleaner than units nowadays.
ReplyDeleteI'm surprised any of these locomotives could still be around. I do miss the green.
