BNSF 681
Title:  BNSF 681
Description:  A pair of BNSF C44-9Ws wearing Fakebonnet paint lead a manifest train north towards Saginaw interlocker. BNSF 681 was actually delivered to Santa Fe as ATSF 681 in real Warbonnet paint in August 1994 but was repainted after the merger with BNSF titles and a different font for the cabside road number. Since repainting it appears an engine room fire broke out and quickly got out of hand as well as a bright Omaha Orange replacement HVAC unit behind the cab. Note the two different fonts used on both units roadname and numbers.
