Santa Fe and Burlington Fort Worth to Saginaw, Texas

We start in the Trinity River basin in Fort Worth and head north for some train action as the winter sun begins to set.
Enjoy the trains!

@@NeilADahl You are correct, I am certain. You know, Fort Worth was always such an interesting railroad operation up to the merger years. I remember being a little 11 year old boy and visiting what was then the Centennial Yard. Standing there with my aunt, we were approached by an employee (MP at the time). He asked if we were lost and she said “no he just loves the trains!” He took us up into the tower there in the center of the yard, where you could see all the way to Tower 55! I will never forget that. But there were so many different railroads then even in 1981. Miss those times. You know, I have an old VHS that Bill Harmon (Zuleka) put out back in the 90’s that covers the railroads of DFW at the time. It’s great and why I love seeing all this pre-merger stuff you put up. Thanks for doing it!

​@@jcraigshelton Do you happen to know where I can find any more Bill Harmon VHS tapes? I was looking for the one about the ATSF Dallas Subdivision but the only copy I could find online was in a university library in Oklahoma City
