A trio of engines from the newly formed Burlington Northern Railroad rolled through Empire City recently with a unit grain train. The locomotives leading the train were 2 SD40-2s and 1 GP38-2. All three are Athearn BB products that have been hard wired and have KD couplers added. The second SD40-2 in the lash up has an HLCX patch on the cab side. The Covered Hoppers are from Accurail, Athearn, Atlas and IHC. All cars have been upgraded with metal wheels and body mounted couplers where appropriate.
