BNSF ET44C4 3764 huals a short mixed freight across a wide trestle on my club layout. I do own the train though.

More pictures of BNSF gevos, if you please. Bonus points if they are weathered.

I'm beginning to realize that Windows 10 and sound decoders have a lot in common. There are so many things you have to change in order to get them to work the way you want.

A wobbly wheel had the crew drop this car off on a prairie siding for the crew to come and repair.

 

Another tank car, please.
