According to a board member over at Locophotos.com, BNSF are storing B23-7s at Topeka, KS. Does this mean BNSF is in the process for retiring these ex-ATSF 4 axle GE's numbered in the #4200 series, which are probably the last Dash7's in Class I service? And, as we all know, older GE's don't last as long with American roads as EMDs.

Railpictures.net, though, shows BNSF B23-7s still in use as late as March of this year, so who knows?
