Description
Burlington Northern Commuter Train

The Burlington Northern Railway was an American Class I railroad. Combining multiple railroads most famously the Burlington Route, Great Northern, and Northern Pacific. The Burlington Northern operated until 1995 when it merged with the Santa Fe Railroad forming BNSF.

This train is styled after the Commuter trains around the Chicago area. The EMD E8s operated commuter service up until 1992. when the last of them were finally retired from service. Many were scrapped but several survived and are now stored at the Illinois Railway Museum.

I've been looking through your trains and I really like them! Would you lease someday consider (to add to your Chicago area trains) an EJ&E GP38-2 (or similar) freight train?

thank you!

@Microfishd It's just a different livery on them one has an orange and white nose other is green and white either one would work for vanilla

Would you please explain the difference between your two EMD E8 Burlington Northern Commuter mods? Which one should I install for a vanilla map?

thanks as this brings back memories. BN was founded in Aurora where I grew up. Took theses trains into Chicago in summer months.

@ricke3661 I know just for the game figured I would let it reverse for use in other cities in the game. I might do a version without reverse at some point for Accurate Chicago builds.

the engine in real life never reversed in the direction it traveled, should be the same in game. just a thought, thank you for adding this. will try it out
