At CN Battle Creek,

An interesting set of BNSF power in 4 paint schemes, 3 near the fuel dock, BNSF 9349 (swoosh) 4763 (heritage II) 9774 (executive crm/grn), and then BNSF 711 (warbonnet) pulled up next to them pulling a w/b mixed freight. Cool group! 8)

Also, several flats loaded with MOW equipment in the middle of the yard.
