West Burlington Relics - a photo on Flickriver

            A Santa Fe C30-7 was resting deep into merger partner Burlington Northern's engine facility in Iowa in 1995. The BN E9s were part of the executive fleet (the 9920 was to become BN-4).

With the pending BNSF merger, BN halted the planned rebuilding of the 9920 and now BNSF uses everyday GE freight motors to pull their business trains.

BN-3 would be donated to the Illinois Railway Museum and the 9920 would be donated to the city of Keller, Texas and restored in quasi-Burlington paint and placed on display in town.
