Street Running In Renton,WA
An EMD F9 pulling the "SPIRIT OF WASHINGTON DINNER TRAIN"towards the old Renton Depot at the end of a Saturday Lunch trip.(Ex B & O and MD DOT locomotive)
Both the Dinner Train and the BNSF "MALTBY TURN"use this trackage,BN aquired it with the BN,NP,CBQ and SPS merger in the 70s.The part that runs thru town is probably less than 1/2 mile. BNSF has applied to abandon it and the politicians are falling all over themselves with talk of bike and hiking trails.

I was lucky to see her twin #84 in Aptos Ca on the Santa Cruz & Monterey Bay Railway November 2012. Not as clean and purty but still running.
