Ex-BN Geeps Lead Amtrak 2 Days!

Im back!!! After an absence of something around 2 or 3 months, im finally back uploading videos. Not exactly picking up right where I left off, but hey its just great to be uploading again!
Here we see BNSF 3025 and 3115 drag Amtrak 716 with CDTX 2014, which bit the dust somewhere between Modesto/Merced, follwed by the next days 713 being pulled back to Oakland by the same two units. In the first shot the crew of the BNSF 7342 meeting the 3025 made it clear they thought the GP leaders were "Nasty" LOL

[@CoasterFan2105]

NICE!!! Great catch!

[@RailfanJunction]

The 3025 is actually back down in SoCal right now, in yard service.

[@TrainiacProductions]

Absolutely epic video. Awesome, man!

[@SF3751]

@jmdhintz She's great, I always enjoy my time trackside when she's the one talking to crews. Do you work the Bakersfield Sub often?

[@trainsruleandroll]

Dude...that's some awesome shit right there! In response to "that's nasty" If I was the Amtrak crew, I would've said, "Hay man don't hate just because I got some nice ass power on the point!" lol

[@SF3751]

@DardanellesBy108 Thanks for the kind words, it was a nice catch to have 2 days straight. I was pleased to see some BN green running around, as it had been some time since i'd seen any. The 2nd shots zoom turned out much better than the first lol.

[@SF3751]

@rcz115 Thanks, always handy to have a scanner!

[@SF3751]

@Trains232 Yea I take what I can get lol. Just nabbed a BCOL unit on the point of an empty grain a few minutes ago hehehe. I need an HD camera!

[@SF3751]

@LearnWithGern Anytime, saw your video, looks good. Too bad its a quiet zone now.

[@DardanellesBy108]

That was awesome for lots of reasons. A unique catch, BN green/white - not one but two, wonderful horns, great zoom work, and a friendly wave from the engineer as he was leaving the station. Love the video. Thanks for posting it for us to enjoy.

[@fiberrabit8229]

like those old BN commuters in chicago

[@AM458]

If I am not mistaken, those BN Units are Geep 50s. Always nice to see to see a Geep 50 or two

[@LearnWithGern]

Thanks for the heads up on this, I was able to catch it in Fresno and post it too.

[@SF3751]

@murjax Well it is pretty old BN power which are as you see RC units now, but I assume they're kept up pretty nice though.

[@SF3751]

@trainsruleandroll LOL Thanks, it was a pretty nice suprise the first day but I knew they would have to come back, so I lucked out.

[@SF3751]

@Squawk7600 Thanks, good to be back!

[@DCxViper]

i love that horn sounds sweet.

[@SF3751]

@murjax That is true though, they do ride pretty rough at speed.

[@AnJohnThanhNguyen]

Omg it's Burlington Northern Green Train

[@SF3751]

@jmdhintz Man I always try to see you guys but you come through during the night.

[@SF3751]

@TrainiacProductions Thanks!!!

[@murjax]

Wow, you would think BNSF crews would like their own power, especially their own power pulling another railroad's trains!

[@SF3751]

@DavidRailroadXing Thanks.

[@SF3751]

@CoasterFan2105 Thanks Mike

[@toomuchraintrain]
