The neatest consist in Rochelle, this looks like the early 1990s on the BN with a trio of Oakway SD60s on a coal, but in reality, it's 2011 on the BNSF on a freight train, does anyone agree |

On July 16th, 2011, a BNSF Grain Train was making a usual run like als the other trains through the Cities, when the a bridge in Fridley gave way from a washout out from the summer rain. The lead Dash 9 only tipped over with minor damage, but the srailing Dash 9, #4663 was not so lucky, she was totalled. Here's a look at her from the St. Anthony Bridge. What kind of fate will this Dash 9 have |
