Grinding around Breezy Point by Mike Danneman Via Flickr: Four Burlington Northern GE C30-7s pull hard on a PSCX coal train rounding Breezy Point west of Belmont, Nebraska, on the climb over Crawford Hill on July 7, 1996. In the background on the other side of the horseshoe curve is the end of the train and a helper set of three EMD SD40-2 and a fuel tender.

Bozeman, Montana

I was shocked today to see an image of the Bozeman passenger station falling into disrepair. I have two images of the station in better times—when Amtrak's North Coast Hiawatha still ran.

In my shots here we first see an eastbound Burlington Norther freight on the former Northern Pacific line, and then the Amtrak passenger trains arrives. I would ride the NCH between Bozeman and Milwaukee.

[Being a locomotive geek, I see that the BN GP9 on point is a former Northern Pacific engine, running on home rails, built in 1957. The power for the passenger train is a relatively new F40PH built in October of 1977, just shy of two years old.] It should be said that this Amtrak train was named in honor of earlier passenger trains on both the Milwaukee Road and the Northern Pacific—as its long journey would use the tracks of those two railroads. The train operated for Amtrak between 1971 and 1979. Again, sorry to see the station falling into disrepair. I hope it is saved and that passenger trains return to the line. Two images by Richard Koenig—made in August of 1979.

rini: what is the railroad history of the santa fe?

Well, Rini… it’s quite a long story, but I’ll give you a brief but important summary…

The Santa Fe was one of the largest railroads in the United States, having railroad lines that reached from San Francisco to Los Angeles to Phoenix to Grand Canyon to Houston to Kansas City to Chicago. Their top passenger trains and streamliners were a series of Chiefs, with one being the Super Chief. However, by December 31st, 1996, Santa Fe merged with Burlington Northern, forming the Burlington Northern Santa Fe Railway, or for short, BNSF.

I got this diesel as a special gift from a buyer on ebay.

I am super happy because this one works! No smell, no sparks!

PSA

PLEASE FOR THE LOVE OF EVERYTHING GOOD AMD HOLY IN THE WORLD. STOP. DOING. DUMB. THINGS AROUND. RAIL. ROAD. TRACKS. IN. A. VEHICLE. you will ruin lots of peoples days I promise. Some dumbass just tried some Duke Caboom type shit and attempted to jump some tracks resulting in a really hard hit with the tracks instead of jumping them. Resulting in a train driver having to file a report, the train master of that territory now has to send an email to all track inspectors in that territory, meaning who ever is available has to go out to those tracks (ON OVERTIME MIGHT I ADD. TAKING AWAY THEIR TIME FROM THEIR FAMILY), inspect them and asses the damage, if the track is damaged one of two things need to be done. A slow order put on the track (speed limit for trains) or they take it out of service. Meaning the track cannot be used until its fixed. So please. Stop. Doing. Dumb. Things. ON. TRAIN. TRACKS.

Just fyi.. I'm at my parents for the weekend for the eclipse this weekend. And my dad got called out for this shit while me and him were on the way out he door for a movie date 😭

Im mentioning so we can get some traction please. This is important. @officialtinder@the-official-publix@shakespeare-official-account@google-news-official@life360-i-swear@gnomiwizard@jupiter-the-god @kroger-fr @nanochittle @yes-im-youtube-kids @literally-hottopic @actually-kroger
