BNSF 5627 |
| Description: |
Adding a BNSF freight engine to most Metrolink trains certainly conflicts with the carrier's streamlined equipment. BNSF AC4400CW 5627 is even less attractive, since its nose has been repainted, obliterating the railroad's identity from the front. This is Metrolink train 267, which will shortly depart Los Angeles Union Station for Lancaster, an L.A. suburb about 75 miles away in Californias Mojave Desert. The stories youve heard about L.A.'s urban sprawl are true... |

BNSF 5642 |
| Description: |
On August 13, 2016, a Metrolink train set sits between runs at the station in San Bernardino, California, with BNSF AC4400CW 5642 on one end. The station is undergoing extensive remodeling to improve passenger flow, including an elevated pedestrian crossover, realigned trackage and new platforms. The leased BNSF diesels are due to be returned by the end of 2016, as repairs to the Hyundai Rotem cab cars are underway. |

BNSF 5662 |
| Description: |
Running about 18 minutes late, Metrolink train 689 (Irvine to Los Angeles) approaches the station in Orange, California, on July 13, 2016. As with most Metrolink trains in 2016, a leased BNSF AC4400CW, 5662, is leading because the carrier is not trusting that the pilots on the Korean-built cab cars is sufficiently braced to allow trains to operate with a cab car leading while in push-mode. |

BNSF 7041 - Daggett CA - 12/23/20 |
| Description: |
Twenty-one-thousand six-hundred horsepower, freed from the confines of the Barstow fuel racks, are at work getting BNSF Railway Guaranteed Service Intermodal train Q-LACLPC6-23 up to speed – in this case, 70 mph (112km/h) – as the train heads east on the railway’s Needles Sub. Five different models are powering this train – BNSF ES44CW 7041, SD70ACe 9032, Dash 9-44CW 971, ES44AC 5773 and AC4400CW 5715 – although most of them look so much alike it is hard to tell. That’s just 21st Century railroading! (Daggett, California – December 23, 2020) |
