BNSF B40-8 Pair - 563 and 570

Description
(Requires Halton's GE B40-8 Pack).

(Be sure to check out my YouTube channel, where I have a video of these Dash 8s in action).

(My next re-skins will be KCS 4006 and the Four 4s Pack, and that should be it from me until September).

BNSF 563 and 570 were built by General Electric in 1988, originally for the Santa Fe as their numbers 7413 and 7420 respectively. The two locomotives are notable for just how long they remained in service, long after the Dash 8s began to be seen as old and outdated.

By June 2020, 563 was one of only two B40-8s still in service with BNSF. After an incredible service life of 32 years, she was finally retired in August 2020. BNSF now has only one active B40-8 on their roster, and that’s number 570.

These liverys are great. Are you still planing on doing the Alaska Railroad F40PH and passenger cars?
