Trains of the FW&D Volume 1 - The BN Years

Trains of the FW&D Volume 1 - The BN Years covers the last 4 years of Burlington Northern operation across the Fort Worth & Denver main in north Texas from 1993 until 1996.

Locations where trains are seen include Iowa Park, Wichita Falls, Rhea, Bellevue, Bowie, Alvord, and Avondale. We also pace an empty Smithers Lake coal train through Fruitland.

Not only are BN trains included, but trains from Union Pacific (exercising trackage rights east of Wichita Falls) and Southern Pacific (exercising haulage rights out of Colorado) are seen.

This program was produced using analog VHS footage shot over 20 years ago onto analog master tapes. The picture and audio quality is not up to todays modern standards.
