Does anyone know if the BNSF is swapping over their engine fleet? I passed by the Port of Galveston train yard about two weeks ago and the entire - and I mean entire - yard was packed with BNSF engines, of all sorts of paint jobs. I think I was able to identify some as GE C40-8w or EMD SD70MAC, although there could have been so many other types tossed in there as well.
There had to be hundreds of engines all jammed together in there. I'm guessing BNSF had sold them and they were being shipped overseas somewhere.
Two weeks later, yesterday, the yard had cleared out a little bit, but there were still so many engines in the yard. I've never seen so many in one place at the same time.
I have some pictures but can't figure out how to get them off my phone at present. I'll try posting them later if I can.
