For those of you that dont normaly read the Locophoto forums, like me, its never. so when i came across this I figured I would put it here. Copied from there forum.
BNSF is trying to organize all its locomotives in numerical order by make and model So it has a spot for the New GEVOs and Gensets. The next big renumbering is for the following units and will begin soon to make room for more Genset Switchers.
BNSF 960-1059 will now become BNSF 4200-4299
BNSF 1060-1123 will now become 5530-5593
BNSF 5841-5843 will become BNSF 5594-5596
and the oddball one i dont get is the BNSF 599 (Ex BNSF 666) will now become BNSF 5599.
The New Gensets will get the numbers BNSF 1000-1199 and 1300-1499 A series Of these will have Dynamic breaks according to my road foreman for Locals and Roadswitcher jobs.
Most all GP and SD38 and 40 model Locos will no longer be with BNSF After 2011 Due to Stricter Air laws and maintenence costs.
5841-5843 are Dash9's that have already been renumbered to 5530-5532. I think he ment to say 5838-5840
I find it odd they are splitting up the H1's lets hope and pray they dont get repainted too
