- Hope you enjoy this clip of the last few months of the Santa Fe. Most of it filmed in Arizona, with a few clips at Barstow CA, and some spots in western NM. The BNSF was formed is September 1995, but the actual merger didn't take place for final approval until December 31, 1996. But there are a couple clips in June of 96 that already have BNSF lettered units.
The reason for the hold-up on the merger is on the Wikipedia Site about BNSF. " The merger of the operating companies was held up by issues with unions;[23] ATSF merged on December 31, 1996 into BN, which was renamed the Burlington Northern and Santa Fe Railway Company.[24]"
BNSF Railway
BNSF Railway Company
Burlington Northern Santa Fe Corp. created on September 22, 1995, when BN bought AT&SF’s corporate Parent. Atchison, Topeka & Santa Fe Railway merged into Burlington Northern Railroad on December 31, 1996, and BN renamed Burlington Northern & Santa Fe Railway. Name shortened to BNSF Railway Company in 2005.

Great Video! I love that SF brought back the Warbonnet Before they merged. Thanks for sharing!
i had to revisit this video, I just did a 3300 mile southwest road trip through there and love seeing how it looks then and now
People associated the sante Fe with Arizona, new mexico, Colorado, etc. But it was equally at home on the south side of Chicago 22nd street ( China town) the sante Fe coach yard, diesel shop, and it's world headquarters on Michigan ave in the loop, watching the CAP
(el capitan) coming from California as a boy was WONDERFUL👌👌👌👌👌
Forgot how sharp those Santa Fe were.
Excellent video Jack. Thank you for the great upload.
Thanks bud. Glad you enjoyed it...
Fantastic video, Jack. Love the long shots!
Thank you for sharing! Truly beautiful scenery!
Glad you enjoyed it William, and thanks for watching...
I have a DVD called,"Atchison Topeka and Santa Fe mainline memories" the DVD has a lot of shots from the Santa Fe when the railroad was at the beginning of the end. This video and that DVD kind of makes me wish the ATSF still existed today.
I know I sure do miss the Santa Fe. But at least we can go back to these videos. Thanks for watching.
Great video, great scenery, the route of the super chief👍
Nice catches!!! I think it would be cool to see what Santa Fe would look like today.
Lots of changes out there I bet Ed. Sure would be interesting to check it out. Especially Abo Canyon after the second track was put in.
@@1jackdk there widecab GE’s would all probably be warbonnets
Awesome video Jack, you got some great shots from Barstow, it's interesting to see how much they've changed that part of the yard since then. Thanks for posting, God bless!

Thanks Larry. I have a good many 33mm slides of Barstow, But just a hand full of video taken in the late 90's. Yah. Lots of changes over the years for sure...
"Standing on a corner in Winslow, Arizona, such a fine sight to see . . . " Three yellowbonnets!
Excellent Video Jack. And seeing I-40 is Awesome
Thanks Derrick. Glad you enjoyed it. I use to run I40 out there almost weekly back in the late 70's early 80's. Loved it out there. Thanks for watching...
On May 1st 1996, When you filmed this Amtrak was 25 years old.
Love all those old santa fe's
wow awesome video!!!! 6:39 that place looked busy!! wished i was there
There was so much to see out that way Jordan. Hopefully one day I could head out that way again to check it out. Thanks
@@1jackdk welcome ya maybe you will see bnsf trains
It's now BNSF but it will always be ATSF to me "THE ROUTE OF THE WAR BONNETS"
Thanks for posting the Gallup and Seligman subs! I run both and it's great to see how much they've changed since '96.
At 9:31, where you standing on the giant boulder off Main 1--with a track spike nailed in at the top?
Thanks HDK. Its amazing how much has changed. It must be great running over those subs. I got the chance to ride from Prewitt to Lee Ranch, and got to opperate coming back from the loader to the power plate. That was fantastic. I might need to post that video one of these days. I do recall standing on a boulder, but I don't recall a spike nailed in the top. Thanks for watching...
Awesome video, do you have footage of Santa Fe 3751 in 1995 and 1996?
Sorry to say Zachary. I don't. Would have loved to see it. I do have video of N&W 1218 and 611, plus some other steam on the east side of the US. Thanks for watching...
i have always heard that the merger was September 21st and 22nd 1995 and that it became offical on December 31st 1996. this is why the units already being lettered for BNSF makes sense. Also i don't think the concept of DPUs started being tested till 1998.
That is correct. This is a clip off the Wikipedia site why it was held up. The merger of the operating companies was held up by issues with unions;[23] ATSF merged on December 31, 1996 into BN, which was renamed the Burlington Northern and Santa Fe Railway Company.[24]
lots of people in these areas own santa fe train cars
The Doppler Effect on the EMD's at 12:35...
"Mostly all filmed"?
1:30 - Why do railroad tracks make a U-turn sometimes? Isn't that a waste?
ATSF had so much pride and history BN has ruined a great railroad. Long live the THE ROUTE OF THE WAR BONNETS !!!
Great video, but that's one crappy camera.
This is the 1990's. What exactly were you expecting?
@TheNevadaRailfan I've seen videos from the 80s that look better than this.
@@dumdum7786 I doubt it. Pretty much all the railroading videos I've seen from the 1990's look the same quality wise.
Everything was sd quality wth.🙄
Its amazing how much cameras have advanced in the last 23 years.
