Congratulations on the worst title in 2025 thus far. Like anybody knows what any of those acronyms mean? Come on.
Train geeks like my BIL surely do
Yea it’s one of the titles that you either get or you don’t.
Every FReeper who is a railfan will get it.
Original titles shouldn't be changed on FreeRepublic. Parenthetical text can be added.
BNSF Donates Historic SD70MAC (locomotive) to IRM (Illinoia Railway Museum)
It’s major news in the IRM Facebook group. More important to the membership than the annual Thomas The Train visit.

FR Commandment #2: Thou shalt not change or modify the original article title.
The Burlington Northern - Santa Fe (”BNSF”) is the main rail operator here in North Idaho. The Rathdum Prairie and Purcell Trench are covered in rail lines. Yesterday I got stopped THREE times by their trains, two of those times were by the same train where the tracks run diagonally to the roads. So I see “BNSF” all the time on their engines and freight cars and knew this was a railroad post.
I got to visit 5 railroad museums... Illinois Railroad Museum, the National Railroad Museum in Green Bay, The railroad museum in St.Louis and Steamtown in PA..
Of course, I love trains...got a railroad museum on my model railroad layout..
So you learned something today, right?
