What happens to locomotives and engines when they're no longer needed? The go to a place, a placed called....The Deadline! One of these happens to be at BNSF's Northtown Yard in Minneapolis, MN. We'll get an up-close look at the power stored, see some RARE units, and learn a little about them. There are some NEAT locomotives to be seen!
Northtown Yard is BNSF's main yard in the Minneapolis and Saint Paul area. It's also home to a rather large deadline of locomotives; power no longer needed, which waits an uncertain fate. In the last few months, the deadline as grown shrank, and changed a LOT. Lots of neat things are in here; a Santa Fe Slug, SUPER rare SD9, GP30 bodies, MRL units, and much more!
