Say hello to Rodney Pennebaker!

 
Member 38 has joined the ranks of the Evergreen club and that makes us 7 members that
is/was/were BNSF employees. It also gives us 2 guys named Rod and 2 guys that have Baker
in their name. The record 6 member Mikes is still the un-challenged leader.
 
This photo from the Doug Nighswonger photo collection might be of some interest to Mr. Alaska,
Jim Bowden as they are brand new F units on the Milwaukee Road line in Othello, Washington
heading for the great white north on the deck of some barge heading for Anchorage. My buddy
Wade Stevenson took the photo.
 
Mr. Oregon, Will Windom showed an interest in this locomotive as it worked near his hometown
in Oregon. Rumor has it that he may want to model it? What model would he use as a start?
 
This is an amazing shot of an SP&S RS-2 Alco with 6 cars and a caboose heading north on the Crooked
River Bridge in middle central Oregon near Madras. Most photos are taken from the highway bridge side
but this one was shot with a lot of effort to take the hike to get here. Attaboy railfan!
 
Finally, a photo I wanted to show you guys for a long time but didn't know what to say. Now I do!
I DIDN'T DO IT!!!!!!!!! AND YOU CAN'T PROVE IT!
