Railfanning Saginaw TX with a B40-8 and a Caboose!

[@DASHERU23BGE]

Very nice video i like Santa fe paint. I Subscribed.

[@nicktheturtlenerd]

Its like a treasure trove of rare equipment!

[@georgestreicher252]

Love the old legacy paint jobs. How about a Great Northern with the old mountain goat logo. Would love to own a caboose. They are very roomy and a great place to live.

[@FreihEitner]

A sad end for a Dash 8-40B... and that caboose, also. And all those gensets just shoved onto a siding and forgotten about.

[@bstrieg5735]

Nice video! Great pictures too!

[@SmithConductor]

Nice catches! I’m going to see the Dash 8s in Galveston on Saturday.

Very unusual for these BNSF EMD Locomotives to be re-numbered with a 3 digit numbers. I remember these Locomotives being numbered with 3000+ road numbers. Now, with most of BNSF's SW 10 & SW 1200 Switcher Locomotives being sold off to a smaller railroad companies, most of BNSF's GP, General Purpose Locomotives took their spot, and are being used as Switchers and Local/ Short line moves. What happened to that Orange BNSF Genset Locomotive at around 4:25? It looks all burnt up, does it still function?

[@ANormalRailfan103]

The burnt up genset does not function anymore to my knowledge, and the rest of the gensets were shipped to Galveston, TX for storage.

[@santaferailwayproductions2051]

Where was that BN Caboose at

[@SnowSniper678]

Hopefully prlx could save some of these locomotives or a rebuild program is around for them 😥 sad to see these beauties not in service anymore

[@railsimsproductions]

Now das dope!!

[@xCharjx]

Seems like gensets aren't favored anymore..

[@ironhorsemedia2881]

What’s the number of the B40-8W at 4:25

[@ANormalRailfan103]

It is BNSF #513. BNSF 513 is now in Galveston, TX in storage waiting to be scrapped.

[@wrrail]

A Normal Railfan 4213 or 213

[@CSXproductions-vq8li]

What happened to the gensets? They retired?

[@ANormalRailfan103]

The gensets were retired. Most of them were just sent down to Galveston, TX for storage.

[@CSXproductions-vq8li]

A Normal Railfan at 4:25 what happened to that one?

[@SnowSniper678]

Most likey rain rusted it or paint peeled off

[@CSXproductions-vq8li]

Snow sniper 678 possibly, the area doesn’t look like there’s any burn marks so I don’t think it’s fire damage

[@ANormalRailfan103]

@@CSXproductions-vq8li It caught on fire, I'm not sure how though.
