The rotary you saw was originally built in 1892. It was later rebuilt with new diesel-electric guts and a new body in late 1959, the body coming from ATSF 4-8-4 #3769’s tender. It was operable up until 1997. Still technically not retired, just stored OOS.

[@Southern_Plains_Railfan]

Oh my, that’s incredible!

[@jetseekers]

From what I've heard, rotary snow ploughs are one of those railcars that you don't ever need until you suddenly really need them. BNSF may even just be keeping it as a Karma charm. As soon as they retire it, their mountain passes will get covered with 15feet of snow and ice

[@Southern_Plains_Railfan]

Small mistake on my part. BNSF 600 is an AC44C4M, not C6M.

[@kens.3729]

Correction Accepted & Thanks! 👍🙏

[@michaelpiatkowskijr1045]

You also made a mistake on BNSF 5658. You called it a Dash-9. It's actually an AC4400CW. BNSF appears to have been repainted back in 1996 or 1997. It was painted into the Warbonnet paint that was to be used for intermodal trains. At the time, SD75Ms were being delivered in the same scheme. It would have been the same time as the Dash-9 1000 series in the Heritage I. The Warbonnet Dash-9s and the SD85Is had the smaller BNSF on the long hood. BNSF 2810 is a GP39M. I believe that means it was rebuilt by Morrison-Knudsen. I know those with E were rebuilt by EMD. V were rebuilt by VMV. All three were rebuilt from GP30s and GP35s for the BN in the 80s and early 90s. The interesting thing is the unit does show GP39-2. I wonder if it has been rebuilt with more current electronics.

[@michaelpiatkowskijr1045]

You're not going to believe what those orange and white BNSF cars are for. At least the tank cars. I'm not sure what they're using the flat cars are for. They could be used to transport parts for the equipment. BNSF is experimenting with dual fuel using SD70ACes and ES44s. The Santa Fe rotary snow plow is the only one Santa Fe had. It should be preserved. It pretty much stays in Topeka, but it has been used when the BN plows were not enough.

[@thefs65ncfan]

BNSF: A1A trucks are the best because they have 2/3 of the maintenance!

[@Pensyfan19]

This is the greatest collection of stored equipment I've ever seen! One of the reasons as to why BNSF is my favorite class 1 is due to its incredibly diverse roster, with many engines still in their original paint to this day, and this video more than proves my point.

[@Southern_Plains_Railfan]

Same here! Topeka is an all out foam fest, lol. I also like BNSF for their locomotive diversity and fallen flags… they have some much rare stuff that just can’t be found on any other railroad.

5:35 The tank cars there are from BNSF's trials of liquefied natural gas (LNG) as a fuel for locomotives, around 2013. They'd run a pair of locomotives with one of these tanks as a fuel tender between them. Two versions: the ordinary tank, and a tank carried on a converted well car. Florida East Coast run a similar system today.

[@Southern_Plains_Railfan]

Very good. I worked for Santa Fe 1967-1971. Went through their electrical apprenticeship program. That building you showed with the Santa Fe logo used to be called the Motive Power Building. That is where the apprenticeship schools where. There was a big lay off in 1971 and I never was called back but continued as an electrician and retired in 2013. Your video brought back a lot of memories. Thank you.

[@Southern_Plains_Railfan]

Wow, what was it like working for the Santa Fe? Do you think they treated their employees fairly, or saw them as just a number or statistic like a lot of todays big railroad do? Also, thanks for the information about the various uses for the buildings! You're welcome, I'm glad I could provide some good nostalgia.

[@Clarinetboy82]

Living in Springfield, Missouri, I was glad to see that old Frisco loco. Sadly it looks like one of the early travesties of the Burlington Northern/Frisco merger where Burlington Northern had originally repainted it green. Here in Springfield so much of our Frisco history has now been lost. BNSF just a few years ago finished tearing down the west side shops that the Frisco had built near the turn of the 20th century. I did see in the middle of the night once about 3 years ago a Frisco coal hopper mixed in with a long train. It was the old silver car with Frisco on the side in black. Wished I'd gotten a photo of it, but I was driving, and the train was passing overhead, while I went under the bridge. I did see that war bonnet loco last year come through town though. That was a sight. Wish they'd freshen up the paint on it though. I also wish that BNSF would paint some locos with the Frisco colors too just like they've kept some Burlington Northern and some Santa Fe colors.

[@yukonjohn9480]

Years ago I helped put the Santa Fe plow in service at the Argentine Shop in KC. We were getting it ready to run east toward chicago after an unusually heavy winter storm. Normally kept at Albuquerque, the plow was a Santa Fe shop build. It was a Leslie plow fitted to a retired 6 axle steam locomotive tender from a northern 4-8-4. The cab was fabricated in house. The Leslie plow was powered by 4 d c traction motors. A trailing Jeep main Gen was electrically coupled to the plow motors for power. Additional pusher locomotives were mu’d to the plow for propulsion. A steam generator provided steam for heat and the flangers.

[@TexanMAGABOI]

Wouldn't be surprised if 195 is being rebuilt and repainted, BNSF did similar with the m's

[@TommyBNSF]

More than likely, 195 is being rebuilt, as BNSF is working on rebuilding all of the standard cab GP60s and repainting them into H4. Also another slight correction, 5658 is an AC4400CW, not a Dash 9.

[@Southern_Plains_Railfan]

I hope its being rebuilt, its still perfectly usable as far as I'm concerned. My bad, I didn't know BNSF even used AC4400's. Thanks for letting me know.

[@ANDREWAMTRAK]

All the Standard cab GP60s are getting mini rebuilds at Topeka, not sure what they're doing besides body work and inward facing cameras. Then they get sent to Mid America Car in KC for paint.

[@randallellison6421]

​@@Southern_Plains_Railfanthey do, but they're actually pretty rare as BNSF purchased only a few units between 2000 and 2001, most of them still wearing their as delivered Heritage 2 scheme.

[@midwest1448]

​@@Southern_Plains_RailfanIf you aren't sure if a BNSF Locomotive is a Dash 9 or an AC4400CW, look at the number. If the number is within 5600-5717, it's an AC4400CW. And, if you see what seems like a Dash 9 on coal service, it most likely isn't. BNSF Prefers Alternating Current over Direct Current when it comes to coal service.

5658 is an AC4400CW.

Ngl if you're looking at a Dash 9 and An AC44 from the conductor's you can tell them apart pretty easily of course the box on the AC44 is about 2 to 3 times the size of the one on the Dash 9.

Rip BNSF 9220 and 5658.

5658 isn’t a C44-9W it’s an AC4400

8:23 bruh why BNSF

[@Southern_Plains_Railfan]

195 and all the other GP60’s are just getting old. She’ll likely be rebuilt and continue to serve with BNSF, but she won’t be a bluebonnet any more.

All the dash 8 needs to go! Probably invented by the same person that invented T.O. and 0/40!

It's a pity about 1/2 of your information was incorrect. You should have asked more questions of the folks that work there. You also failed to show the executive business car fleet.😢

[@Southern_Plains_Railfan]

I’m sorry, what did I say wrong? I wanted to get photos of the executive cars, but they were blocked by other equipment, and there weren’t any employees around for me to ask questions.

@@Southern_Plains_Railfan We are where they send major overhaul units. The ones missing the engine have them pulled and replaced with newly rebuilt engines. That old blue and gold GP came out of wreck repair and awaiting overhaul completion. The old switch engines are still used to move motors around the facility.
