Great Western Malting In 1935 the Blitz-Weinhard beer brewers picked Vancouver as the site of their new malting facility. The site was strategically located on the shore of the mighty Columbia River, a few hundred miles downstream from acres and acres of barley fields in eastern Washington, Oregon, and the Willamette Valley, and the site was next to the main Burlington Northern rail line. In the foreground, and completely unrelated, is the Pacific Coast Shredding scrap metal operation

The first SD70MAC, BNSF 9400, is being retired to the IRM.

Also, I feel very old suddenly.
A picture of BNSF 9400 passing a signal behind another locomotive. The text from Second Section Productions reads: "Final Goodbye" After over 30 years of service, the first SD70MAC, BNSF 9400 departs Alliance, NE for the final time. The impact the technology this locomotive debuted cannot be understated, it is slated for donation to a railroad museum in Illinois. ~6/27/25 #BNSF #BNSFRailway #BurlingtonNorthern #train #EMD #SD70MAC #locomotive #train #AlternatingCurrent #BN9400 #IllinoisRailwayMuseum #IRM #Alliance #Nebraska #railfan #photography #history #wallart .… See more — with BNSF Railway and Illinois Railway Museum in Alliance, NE.
