Burlington Northern SB Coal Train OWY 9007 OWY 9070 BN 5393 ATSF C30-7 Bragdon Colorado

            Southbound Burlington Northern loaded coal train 115TT130 with Oakway, BN and Santa Fe power leading cruises downgrade at Milepost 628.0, south of Bragdon, Colorado on September 17, 1988. Just ahead lies the joint BN (formerly Colorado & Southern) / Santa Fe Pueblo Yard where the next crew change will take place before departure once again for points south.

From a group of one hundred Oakway, Inc. SD60’s operating for Burlington Northern on a "power by the hour" basis wearing their EMD inspired blue & white Electro-Motive demonstrator colors, OWY 9007 and 9070, (built in October and December, 1986) lead BN U30C 5393 and a Santa Fe C30-7 curving around north of Pueblo in awesome late afternoon sunlight.

The SD60’s continued in service after the BNSF merger with fifty coming off lease in late 2008 and the remaining units leaving in 2013. Canadian National picked up ninety with the 9007 becoming CN 5450 and the 9070 becoming CN 5478. Not as fortunate as the Oakways, the Burlington Northern U30C and Santa Fe C30-7 have long since been scrapped.
