Does anyone know if the real BNSF 5612 has the BNSF ‘New Image’ logo on it? Since the HO Model already has it. Where can I find Photos of the real one with the new logo? Allan.

i believe that it doesn’t have it, i believe its still in H2, some one correct me on this

a quick google search returned a photo dated mrch 26 and it was still in H2, see railpictures.net.

5612 is an AC4400,right? I’m pretty sure no AC4400s have the new logo. I know #5603 doesn’t so Athearn’s is incorrect.

You should look on google and search for BNSF photo archive and see if they have that same engine on the website.
