This ex SOO loco was at the Mannheim Yard Engine House, only info available on it is that it's not going to the Shore River RR.

Here's a grab shot of a CSX ES44AC on a BNSF manifest coming into Mojave. As I learn more about such things, I see that, due to the centerbeam flat, it's an Inside Gateway train coming from either Seattle or Vancouver, WA, headed to Barstow. There was a long drought of foreign units out here, but I'm seeing more CSX and NS lately.

So they picked that unit up at their connection with CSX in Seattle?

In model railroading, there are between six and two hundred ways of performing a given task.
Most modellers can get two of them to work.

Based on this thread <!-- m --><a class="postlink" href="http://www.westcoastrailforums.com/thread-8408.html">http://www.westcoastrailforums.com/thread-8408.html</a><!-- m --> BNSF has a power shortage, and anything can happen. I've noticed a lot more NS and CSX power, although this is the first foreign power I've seen on a manifest.

I understand that the box car was handcrafted by a modeller of superior skills. I disagree with that assessment because I believe that it was handcrafted by an artist of superior skills. Worship Worship Worship Worship Worship Worship Worship Worship Worship
