BNSF Burlington Lines
By Midwest Video Productions

Over 70 trains, from the Belt Line in Chicago to locals and trains running to the Northwest. This is a look at the new BNSF's important Burlington Northern Line between Chicago and Burlington, Iowa. We'll see lots of BN color and some new BNSF '"pumpkins'" too. We railfan the Mississippi River crossing and see TP&W locals off the Peoria Branch.

Locations include Belt Rail;way of Chicago, Lisle, East Eola, EJ&E Crossing, West Eola, Naperville, Montgomery, Galesburg and West Burlington.

Midwest Video Productions was most active in the mid-to-late 1990s when mergers were happening and flags were falling at a fast clip. This video was shot using professional equipment of the time, but is not up to the clarity of today's high-definition video. It is however an excellent snapshot of an important time in the nation's railroad history.
