🎉🚂 Our big secret, (or three) is out!

BNSF is proud to unveil today three specially painted locomotives honoring America’s 250th birthday, units 250, 1776 and 2026, wrapped in red, white, and blue and carrying the spirit of “We the People.”

These locomotives pay tribute to our nation’s story and the railroaders who’ve helped shape it for nearly two centuries.

They’ll be traveling our 32,500‑mile network, celebrating the communities we serve, our rich history and the people who keep America moving.

Here’s to 250 years of freedom, connection and the railroad that helped build it.

South of Sacramento once stood a monument to railway engineering: the Lisbon Trestle.

Built in 1912, the 14,000 ft. trestle allowed electric trains to quickly cross the vast Yolo Floodplain. Unfortunately, it collapsed in 1951, thanks to neglect and a heavy steel train.

c. 1940
