BNSF Whiteface 2819, a rare GP39M, BNSF H1 B23-7 #4264, and a BN Whiteface GP39E lead a westbound Manifest through Joliet.
Looking forward from the cupola of BN caboose 12041, we can see that the motor of our short work train is about to pass approach signal 1106.02 and enter one of several snow sheds on the pass.
View of the bridge at Glacier Park East from BN 2919. Note the walkway replacement work which our train has brought timbers for.
While stopped at Glacier Park to unload ties, I use BN 2919's walkway as the vantage point for this shot of the river far below.
View of our work train from the coupla of BN caboose 12041 as we roll across Marias Pass en route from Essex to Glacier Park. The train is complete with a Jourdan Spreader and an air-dump car.

In 1994, an interesting quartet of 4-axle motive power rolls northward on BN's Dalhart Sub. Two of the rebuilt GP30s are at home as ex-CB&Q units, while the other worked for the GN.

A rebuilt GP30 and another EMD lead the local down the hill and past the elevator in Maynard, MN.
The local has a new Heritage Geep on point.
