BNSF 900, still in its Santa Fe Warbonnet paint scheme, is seen here sitting in Union Pacific's Dupo Yard. The Warbonnet scheme was originally used on Santa Fe's passenger trains. After the Santa Fe ended it's passenger service the scheme was sidelined, but the scheme made a come back in the 1980s/1990s before being sidelined again after Burlington Northern's and Santa Fe's merger.
