FRIENDS OF THE BURLINGTON NORTHERN RAILROAD

Burlington Northern Business Cars (BNA-14)

This 60 seat coach started out as a 1947 AC&F product for the GN's 1951 "International" train. Upon the merger, BN (and Amtrak) did not continue running the "International" and this car, like many others, became surplus. After sitting around for awhile waiting to be used, it was given (and used) a MofW number, 968079 in 1973. Even though it had a MofW number it was used it certain 'special' passenger trains. These were usually trains ran by certain divisions for Boy Scout jamborees, taking underpriviledged kids to educational or recreational areas, and certain sporting events. After it's 1982 rebuilding, it was transferred from a MofW number to the Business car fleet as BNA-14 and given the name "Logans Pass". Like the other cars in 1994/1995, it was painted in the "Executive" scheme of black/cream and it continues in service today, only painted in silver to match the other BNSF cars.
