2 decades since the release of Microsoft Train Simulator, BNSF 4723 still proudly wears it's MSTS logo even this long after the game has been released. If there's any media that started my love for trains, it would have to be this game, as I'm sure other people my age can relate. As a photo prop, I brought my own copy of MSTS I got as a very young lad, and used it for this photograph. Although to some people it may just be another dash 9 with a fancy sticker on it, to me it holds a place in my heart as the unit that really jumpstarted my interest for this hobby. This photo was inspired by an older post on this site by photographer Joe LeMay, you can view it here.
