The Railfan treasure trove of a railroad!! If you’re looking for a commuter train that operates EMDs and nothing else, then Metra is for you!

@AMTK317Productions Ай бұрын

As a person who went to Chicago in the summer, I can identify that Metra is one of the best but biggest commuter rails in the Illinois area. I have taken two of their lines before (MD-N the most, BNSF Line to Berwyn, IL once).

Why does the BNSF line only have F40s while the other lines get the new locomotives and the F59

@YaBoiKnox Ай бұрын

The BNSF line were supposed to get the MACH’s but BNSF being BNSF (petty) they didn’t want them because it had a 710 engine instead of a 645 which all the other F40’s have. So to answer your question, (in short) blame BNSF.

A few of the trains shown have one car that's painted blue (possibly with white trim), rather than the usual bare metal (for want of a better term). What is different about the blue cars?
