BNSF 781 leads the oil train eastbound
Title:  BNSF 781 leads the oil train eastbound
Description:  I think the lead unit must have been in some sort of crossing accident, because the left front cowling of the low hood is an apparent repair job that didn't get the full warbonnet paint job. I call the unit "Scarface".
