I'm told it's a rub off of the pumkin scheme. Is this true?? I guess I'll just have to wait and see. LORD HELP US ALL TO BE ORIGINAL AND NOT CRISPY!!! please? Sarah J.M. Warner conductor CSX Reply fuzzybroken Member sinceOctober 2002 From: Milwaukee, WI, US 1,384 posts Posted by fuzzybroken on Sunday, April 3, 2005 9:48 PM I think the name change from "Burlington Northern Santa Fe" to "BNSF" and the logo change reflect a real lack of creativity. Kansas City Southern was going to change to "NAFTA Railway", but I'm glad they changed their minds about that -- just sounded stupid. BNSF would have been better off changing to a whole new image, along with the name... "Great River & Pacific" would have had a nice ring to it, eh? At least Kansas City Southern still is descriptive of where the railroad goes, even with the Mexican part of it! (Until Canadian Pacific buys 'em, then who knows...)
