A Trio of BNSF DPUs
Title:  A Trio of BNSF DPUs
Description:  A little unusual for the BNSF on the Joint Line...typically BNSF's coal trains run 2x2, but this one was running 2x3. One thing that's interesting to me: even though these two ACes are older than the GEVO, it seems their paint is holding up better and not fading near as fast as the GEVO's.
