I seen an SD60M heading in Sheridan, Wyoming today with with a road # of 8156. Is there another BNSF fan that can explain this one? I looked up 8156 on trainpix.com and I saw 8156 is or was and SD40-2. I have only seen SD60M with road #s of 9200, 92ect. Oh, since I have started a topic of SD60's...... anyone know were those SD60MACs are????

And Athearn will come out with a future run of patched BNSF HO SD60M's:)

Which would make them unavailable to be photographed right? I haven't heard that TTCI is easy to photograph.

I hear that place is as heavily guarded as Fort Knox. The only way that they can probably be viewed is Google Earth?
