MARYHILL WA May 4 2008 — BNSF C44-9W 4972 rolls east with a mixed freight. My photo.
BNSF 4972 east charges up Cajon Pass with a CEFX AC4400 3rd back.
A splash of BNSF colors as 4972 (Dash944CW) backs into the engine yard with help from two crew. Behind 4972 is BNSF 2854 and BNSF 2700 (both GP39-2's).
With a cloud bank approaching, grain empties head east out of Hancock on their way toward Willmar.

A meet of east and westbounds at the Hill 582 crossing. I like how both trains second unit is a NS engine.
Coming out of Klondike and climbing Ash Hill, this eastbound ztrain glows against the warm winter sunrise
Having just let a southbound pass this unit is given the go ahead early on a Saturday morning.
