Product Information:
After Santa Fe merged with Burlington Northern, BNSF used their remaining GP7u’s in branchline and secondary service. However, many years of service began to take their toll on the appearance of the units. They often exhibited faded coats of Santa Fe blue & yellow, various types of BNSF patch lettering, and replacement parts.
