BURLINGTON NORTHERN: The Final Years

The 1970 merger of Northern Pacific; Great Northern; Chicago; Burlington & Quincy; and Spokane, Portland & Seattle created a new super railroad spanning the northern and central U.S. over a 25,000-mile network. With wonderful original photographs, the author takes a look at the last dozen years of the Burlington Northern before the merger with Santa Fe to form BNSF in 1995.
