On the same day as the other photo, the BN 214 picks up a car along NW 15th Ave in Portland. I can't remember who the customer was, it may have been the Meier & Frank wearhouse. After 12 years some of the details have slipped my mind.
I know, its only a riding platform. Still interesting to see a caboose on the end of a train though. I wonder how many other BN green cabosses are out there with the new Swoosh logo on them....
Lots of stuff from fallen flags clutters this shot. The local leaving on the main has units from BN and two colors of SF. Also in the back are two even older SF units doing some switching.

Ex-Southern & Burlington Northern (both fallen flags) coal hoppers roll under CNs banner. Theres also a large chunk of ex-CP ones in the fleet on unit trains.
Note the bent structure on the CNA (ex-SOU) hopper.
