I am looking for information how BN served the lumber district along W. Cermak Rd in the 1980s and 1990s. I can not find any information or photos of BN engines in that area.
The area must have been served earlier by CBQ because CIHR painted one of their engines in a CBQ look alike paint scheme as a tribute to the history of that line. BNSF continued to serve it after 2010 and probable since BNSF creation until CIHR toke over in 2000. Anyhow no information could be found what happened in the timeframe between CBQ and BNSF. I have an interest in that time starting in 1980.
