Description
The Burlington Northern: the Final Years By Mike Danneman In 1970, four major railroads merged to form a new super railroad, spanning over 25,000 miles across the northern and central United States. For twenty-five years, Burlington Northern (BN) was one of the country's premier railroads, with its own distinct identity emerging in the early 1980s. During this time, BN underwent significant changes, including the expansion of Powder River Basin coal shipments and the introduction of new colours to its uniform. The company continued to grow throughout the 1990s, with a focus on intermodal, grain, and coal traffic. This book takes a look at the last dozen years of BN's history before it merged with Santa Fe in 1995. With original photographs, Mike Danneman provides a detailed account of Burlington Northern's final years, offering insight into its growth, changes, and eventual merger.
