Galen used to live down here, but he has moved to Washington State. BNSF has down graded the Gp60m's to local switching service. I believe the B units have been retired, but I don't know if they are sitting dead somewhere or have been traded in on new power. They may even be cannibalizing the B's for spare parts for the M's. I don't know for sure, but suspect that the locomotives you see in local service will stay there until they need to be shopped, at which time the railroad may transfer other locomotives that have just come out of the shop to exchange with the one(s) needing to go in for repair.
