<div>Continuing my "family photo"s..This is the "family" that actually fits BNSF's Phoenix subdivision that my scenery models.</div> <div>(As usual this family is a mix of moderately priced locos all from Ebay.....an old Athearn, some Bachmann Spectrums, and a couple each of P2K and Kato...all converted to DCC and all under $50 including that SD40-2 which is a new Kato auctioned.)</div> <div><br /></div> <div>Now also visible are my switch posts. I had to use CN style 'cause that's all I could find available and I am not sure at all what BNSF switch post style is. Moreover I put numbers on the targets so I can see what switch I am dealing with back at my low-tech throttle center. I've only ever seen numbers on targets on a photo of some European yard. Although small these little targets save me time in squinting at my yard diagram for sure. I put these throughout the service and storage yards....not prototypical, but good for my eyes.<br /></div> <div><br /></div> <div>BNSF No.1000 GE Dash 9 </div> <div>BNSF No.6744 EMD SD 40-2</div> <div>GN No.16 EMD SW1200 </div> <div>GN No.3011 EMD GP30</div> <div>GN No.s 407 and 418 EMD GP SD45s</div> <div>NP No.3601 EMD SD45</div> <div>CB&Q No. 9920 EMD E8</div> <div>ATSF No.s 3014 3015 and 3019 FM H16-24s</div> <div>ATSF No. 464 GE 44-Ton</div> <div>Santa Fe No. 2157 ALCO RSD4/5<br /></div> <div>Santa Fe No. 1243 EMD GP 30</div> <div><img src="http://i168.photobucket.com/albums/u172/dcrane_2007/BNSFFAMILYPHOTO.jpg" style="max-width: 550px;" border="0" /><img src="http://i168.photobucket.com/albums/u172/dcrane_2007/BNSFFAMILYPHOTO2.jpg" style="max-width: 550px;" border="0" /></div>
