If it does get rebuilt, the 9735 will be in Heritage 3 paint.

If the TFM unit gets rebuilt, it will likely be in the KCS Belle paint scheme.

Looking at the damage on the rear pilot of BNSF 9735, it sure seems like the "anti-climbers" definitely do their job. Hope the crew is ok after the wild ride.

In response to the question about the crew, one of the crewman sustained a minor injury. With the exception of the TFM unit (which sustained damage from derailed coal hoppers), the other locomotives involved sustained damage similar to that of the BNSF unit.

I checked on the locomotives status today (3/27/14). A crew was working on further securing the cars for transportation to Kansas City. The foreman had seen this photo on line. A nice guy who is proud of his company, told me "you need to change R.J. Corman to Hulcher - we work for Hulcher." I have made the correction to the entry above.
