BNSF 1515, wedge view of rear section |

Wedge view of rear section of BNSF 1515, a fairly rare GP-28M. The edges of the steps are still white. An extra coupler knuckle is stored in a special "pocket"--look for the white F on the pilot. |

BNSF 1515, close up of rear pilot |
| Description: |
This close-in view of BNSF 1515's rear "pilot" shows six hoses or cables, including the air hose. You can also see the extra or spare knuckle in the "pocket" on the endpiece. There may be one on the other side but I couldn't see it from this angle. I don't know the significance of the "3 POINT" decal or sticker near the edge of the steps near the walkway. Rock Island, IL: 11-04-2011. |

BNSF 1515, conductor's side, 11-4-2011. |
| Description: |
BNSF 1515 heads west in Rock Island, IL's Lower Yard on 11-4-2011. I took the photo as a grab shot from literally the "other side of the fence"! The setting sun gives the scene a kind of backlit effect. This unit will be coupling onto the cars in the foreground later on. |
