A formidable barrier confronts all trains on the BNSF’s main east-west route between Chicago and Los Angeles. Boasting spectacular southwestern scenery, seven majestic bridges and located between Belen and Mountainair, New Mexico … it’s the rugged and remote Abo Canyon.
Captured in Abo Canyon during a fleeting window of time following the merger of the Burlington Northern and the Santa Fe, this video features a once in-a-lifetime collection of motive power types and paint schemes. The classic Santa Fe red and silver Warbonnets and the Blues join Burlington Northern green. A new BNSF design reminiscent of the old Great Northern orange and green paint scheme enters the scene. See the Dash 9-44CW, Dash 8-40BW, SD40- 2, SD75M and others.

Hardworking, high-horsepower trains in a starkly beautiful landscape … that’s railroading in Abo Canyon. The program explores the line in detail, with time spent at each of the canyon’s seven spectacular bridges. Recorded shortly after the BNSF merger, the locomotives working through Abo Canyon are still making the transition from pre-merger paint schemes to the new railroad’s “Heritage” schemes. The result is a colorful and thoroughly enjoyable program!
