NorthWest RailPics - Burlington Northern Ribbon Rail Train


In April of 1993, I ran across a ribbon rail train sitting in the yard in Auburn, Washington. After the two locomotives, the first car leading the train was a Water Car, a white, single inlet tank car (1960's vintage), similar to BN 973185 (included for illustrative purposes). From right to left, these are the following cars. After BN 9750075, there were several (6 to 10) similar flats with the racks for hauling the rail. Closing out the train, was a standard BN "wide vision" caboose.
BN 970075 BN 959945 BN 965723 BN 965721 BN 965722 BN 965720 BN 951703 BN 973185
