[quote user="BNENGR"] <p>Hey SD60M,</p><p>I'm another lifelong BN fan. I'm currently modeling the BN in S.E. Montana & N.E. Wyoming in the Powder River Basin. Coal is the biggy out there. I'm replicating the year 1985. All my locos and most rolling stock are BN. </p><p>I started following the C.B.&Q. back in the 60's before it became the BN in 1970. The BN was a product of the merger of the GN, NP, Burlington Route (C.B.&Q.), SP&S. In '80, the St. Louis - San Francisco was acquired and in Dec. of '96 the BN merged with the AT&SF (Santa Fe) to form the present BNSF. The BN has quite an impressive background and history.</p><p>Keep 'em rolling!</p><p>Paul </p><p>That sounds like a layout that I would think is really cool! You must be rolling a lot of coal tonnage on your tracks! BN was primarilly responsible for the Powder River Basin, which to me is just another reason they were great! What are you running for coal cars? What are you running for locos? I love it! Keep 'em rolling is right!!!</p><p>Richard</p>[/quote]
