Today was no exception, as I caught the HNTWBRC at Long Common Road on the Racetrack in Riverside, and again at Nerska on the BRC. Jacob Metzger posted four photos with the comment:Ī day of the year I always seem to hit the jackpot with vintage Santa Fe equipment is April 22nd, for seemingly no reason.
Ballast pile! Here's the local manifest M-CHIGAL as it takes a string of empty centerbeams out of Joliet on 4/22/18 Robert Foster H4 is the intermediate and H3 is high horsepower.ĭrone shot? Nah. Another railfan indicated the dark color is "Northern Pacific dark green." The colors are based on Great Northern Railway's pre-1967 colors of Omaha Orange and Pullman Green. And it has the SantaFe cross logo on front but with the lettering of Burlington Northern Santa Fe Railway. H1 has a thick orange stripe down the middle for the black lettering and just one yellow stripe between the orange stripe and the "dark Pullman Green" that is above and below the orange/yellow area. As best as I can tell, it was the Executive paint scheme. Today's non-orange scheme was the second locomotive for a unit coal train. The first non-orange scheme I saw several days ago was the Warbonnet scheme (below). I soon learned the paint schemes that include orange are four Heritage schemes that are called H1-H4. I had also noticed that the locomotive liveries that included orange had different details. When I saw the second BNSF engine this morning with a color scheme that did not include orange, I decided it was time to learn more about the paint schemes. (Update: more example of equipment with some older liveries.)
