The 0700 job is arriving in the yard where Yellowline is to run-around their train and begin work. GP39V 2968 leads the movement. I wonder what the crews think of all this hoopla now that hundreds of railfans have converged on these things to photograph them, often in large groups. As a friend of mine said, to most crews these things are just a tool to do their jobs, and it's just paint. It's fall 2024 and the BNSF's are going strong, and so too are the railfans following them. What do you think?

    2968 led 568 finally, forward facing, both today and yesterday. 4713 trailed.

    Fun morning.

    Wild how long this has gone on. Have shot the ones that have come to Hamilton but have never left municipal boundaries to shoot any. I’m a lazy railfan these days.

    BNSF 2090 was trailing on 435 yesterday, destination unknown although I’m hoping Brantford. I still enjoy seeing this power.
