BNSF #6731 is a 3,000-horsepower SD40-2 that was built by the Electro-Motive Division of General Motors in September 1979 as Atchison, Topeka & Santa Fe #5072. Following the merger of the Burlington Northern and the Atchison, Topeka & Santa Fe on September 22, 1995, this locomotive became Burlington Northern Santa Fe #6731 on March 12, 1999. My dad, Cliff West, photographed it at Wishram, Washington, in the fall of 2003.
