BNSF 8167
Title:  BNSF 8167
Description:  BNSF 8167 with hatch open - probably because the crew has to manually walk to the next unit to confirm its still there and the electronics are reporting correctly, because if you look back behind you, its nothing but fog (nearly 50% contrast enhancement to make anything visible in the image).

BNSF 1948
Title:  BNSF 1948
Description:  BNSF 1948 in the self-serve lane in Vancouver - the glow of the lights below the eaves of the building in the background sort of give away the actual lighting conditions - but digital to the rescue to make Vancouver, WA look like a great spot to visit weather-wise in February (isnt everyone dark by 4:20 in the afternoon in February?)

BNSF 5164
Title:  BNSF 5164
Description:  BNSF 5164 at the head (or tail) of a trio in the power corral in Vancouver behind a muddy bank - until the fences go in, Im at a loss to know where BNSF will claim the stand behind this line area will be and Ive already received my warning for this area that I have to stay behind the blue stakes... that arent there any more. ("Directions to the Schmidt house? You know, turn left at the old barn - it burnt down in 1924... just pasture now - but thats where you turn left...")

BNSF 7191
Title:  BNSF 7191
Description:  BNSF 7191 behind the mud baths in Vancouver... what? You dont think the units get that dirty on their own, do you? Heck, they get shipped here from all across the nation (visiting power as well - not currently shown) to have custom weathering applied here in Vancouver with this mud, rain, and crud! When the rest of the nation is frozen solid (but having sun), were possibly the only place to _get_ fresh liquid mud. You Norfolk Southern people thought they just painted NS livery brown spatter over black? Ha. Youre welcome.

UP 9788
Title:  UP 9788
Description:  UP 9788 attempting to go incognito while shes on foreign land across the river in our area - although I do have to wonder why Union Pacific tries to make it challenging to ID her units: no number boards (unless those ovals on the nose covered in grim would be them), chronically worn-off cab paint, and other challenges.

BNSF 4950
Title:  BNSF 4950
Description:  BNSF 4950 on the power corral line - and my apologies for the beached whale shot - it would seem after discovering this neat little area for pictures, its getting buttoned up, fenced off, and shut-down for folks with a camera - so longer lenses and worsening angles start to take their toll.

BNSF 7050
Title:  BNSF 7050
Description:  BNSF 7050 on point and at the ready for power shuffles in the waiting area under wonderful sun - did I mention it was warm? And sunny? And the east coast was buried in about 10 feet of snow? And the south was _colder_ than we were? But I wouldnt say anything because I know what its like to have crappy weather - compared to the completely perfect weather we were having in February. Did I mention the sun already?

UP 4862
Title:  UP 4862
Description:  UP 4862 in the gas-n-guzzle service area in Vancouver as photographic proof BNSF treats borrowed power well - shes even somewhat clean... er, ignore that green Steel metal recycling bin... theyre not really stripping metals off that unit for added profit at the local metal recycling plant... "No, sir, that UP unit came to us missing 26,498 pounds of metal... uh, how did I know how many pounds shes short... Lucky guess?" (and you wonder why loaner power from UP to BNSF is rarely a shared power type - otherwise thatd be, "No, sir, Im sure she was missing the entire A/C and electronics cabinet. What do you mean thats a pair of recycled reefer wheels holding up her back end? Looks like a DC unit to me...")
