At our local club meeting a few weeks ago, one member brought along a new Kato diesel as part of our "Show and Tell" session at the end of the meeting. It was painted in the nice BNSF "pumpkin" paint job - really neat looking. I commented that many years ago modelers running such engines from so far away could be ridiculed as it being "not prototypical", but not these days, as it is almost possible to see any engine anywhere. <br /> <br />We're in Canada's Maritime Province of New Brunswick, almost as far away from BNSF territory that you can get in North America. <br /> <br />Wouldn't you know it - a BNSF Dash 9 in the same scheme showed up here in Saint John yesterday and today! Who woulda thunk? It was sandwiched between two CN engines, and I assume it may have arrived with a potash unit triain from Saskatchewan. Anyway, I was thankfully able to take a few photos and have posted them in a web album in case anyone would like to have a look at the "Stranger in town": <br /> <br />http://photobucket.com/albums/v409/railfan/BNSF%20%205342/ <br /> <br /> <br />Bob Boudreau [8D]
