Ever see something role down the tracks that makes you do a double take, and wonder what just went by? That was the case when I was able to catch these brand new, and showroom fresh engines with 'Tren Maya' on the sides. After doing some digging into it, these are off to a neat new home!
These seven brand new locomotives showed up on the NSINTW on a beautiful fall day. After being cut off of their train, the engines were moved over to the T Yard at Northtown Yard. This gave me the chance to get some really close ups, and discover more about what Tren Maya is. Turns out, its a brand new railroad being built which traverses the Yucatán Peninsula. The railroad is also operated by Mexican Armed Forces. I never though something like this would pop up on this part of the BNSF! As a bonus, we'll also see the Twin Cities and Western, Northstar, Former Santa Fe Power, and the units leaving town.
Edit: I lost my voice over the weekend; apologies for anything mispronounced. Ending audio seems to have an issue too for some reason.
