The New Snoqualmie Pass
Title:  The New Snoqualmie Pass
Description:  On August 19th, 2014, I ran by BNSF's Topeka shops and came away with shots of some interesting new wrinkles in the BNSF Business Car Roster. As I showed up, a westbound business train was getting ready to depart the shops, and given a bit of free time before dinner, I decided to brave the heat and see what I could make happen. This one is the confusing one. Here, we've got the newly renamed AND renumbered BNSF 62, the "Snoqualmie Pass." I'm not positive, but this looks to be the former BNSF 2, the "Columbia River." I haven't found any pictures of the BNSF 2 since mid-2012, so it has presumably been shoved away in the shops for quite some time. However, what's odd about this is that the BNSF already has/had a "Snoqualmie Pass," which had been HEP car #51. I've not seen that car recently, so it's anybody's guess as to what it comes out as.

BNSF "Snoqualmie Pass"
Title:  BNSF "Snoqualmie Pass"
Description:  The "Snoqualmie Pass" is named after a locale on the Milwaukee Road's route through the Cascades that BNSF predecessor Burlington Northern owned for a short while after the Milwaukee pulled out from the West Coast in 1980. BN subsequently abandoned the route through the pass. I find it surprising a BNSF business train car would bear the name of a place that no longer is part of a rail system.
