    Ah, the memories! We used to see one, now and then, coming into town. But since BNSF sold off the branch, not a one that I have caught in the yard.

    Otherwise you may find some of them in Merida, Yucatan, Mexico.;)

    Way down in Mexico. Far from home!

    How did you find this video?

    Totally randomly.

    But it happens that I've become a fanatic of the Yucatan railroads, after having spent some time in Cancun area a few years ago, as I spent time along a remote rail line between Merida and Valladolid, that barely sees one to two trains a week each way. I'm such a fanatic of it that my future Z 1:220 scale modelrailroad will depict that line... ;)

    Here is a link about what I discovered there:

    Thus I'm oftenly spending time on Youtube, searching new videos about that line and those around. ;)

    That place is addictive. Amazing what can be found, and often purely by accident.
