    Great to see that warbonnet. I can't figure out why BNSF hasn't jumped on the heritage fleet bandwagon, and painted some of their units in that silver and red. It looks so much better than the earlier BNSF H1, and many other paint schemes. Great catch.

      @@samschaeffer8236 probably because they have all their paint schemes still running the rails… 😆 I still want to catch a Santa Fe in it’s original scheme I know there’s a few still out there.

    War Bonnet looked like a Toaster that caught Fire. 🔥 There are a dozen or two of the 7xx Series still Running on the High Rails mostly in the Midwest. 🤔👍

    I remember when those engines were first getting delivered. Back then NS had nearly zero engines with air conditioning. So when we would get put in the siding, we would go back fire them up and bask in the sweet, sweet refreshing AC.

      @@therailroadtiespiker Yep the 8000's. They would either freeze you out or not work. If we got too cold we would just open the windows, because if you adjusted it AT ALL, it would shut off and not turn on again. No matter what you did, pull breakers, pull the main line in, just done. At least on the standard cabs you did get air in the windows, with the wide bodies, very little air will come in.

      @@schinbone0 that makes since because on the standard cab the windshield was flat and it would let the air flow at a different angle around the the side of the cab and the wide cabs the air is forced outward to the side. You also had the door up in front of the conductor.
