The Northwest continues to be a haven for BNSF's four axle power. A power consist like this makes sense on a train that is going to be making the same turn every day, with no need to break up the set. Younger ex Santa Fe power like the SD75's are off the roster, and the lead unit is an ex Santa Fe GP35 (GP39-3) built in 1965.
