Railpictures.ca - Isaac Bryson Photo: Toronto has seen a flurry of foriegn power early on in 2021 with the highlight being dozens of BNSF locomotives. It feels like we hear about another BNSF locomotive incoming every day. A major plus is that a fair few have been leading. One of the more notable BNSF locomotives to run the rails through Toronto was BNSF 7694. Painted in “Heritage 2″, it is a relatively uncommon sight for a BNSF Gevo. Trailing is CP 3119 and 30 cars before a rear DPU?!? BNSF 9161 shoves the train up towards Toronto yard. This suprisingly isn’t the first time I’ve captured bookend BNSFs, the first being on CN in 2018 with my phone, but this duo was much more interesting! | Railpictures.ca – Canadian Railway Photography

I understand that it’s a power share program, but why the sudden flurry of BNSF’s? Is it a new directive? A new agreement? I love it regardless the reason..but interested to know. Caught my first BNSF DPU on 113 at Osler. Worth the freezing cold! Nice one Issac.

Horsepower repayment hours. Likely a ton of CP locomotives have been on BNSF lately.
