BNSF Dash 9 Nose Logos

An Archival List


During the construction of the Burlington Northern Santa Fe Dash 9s, the company has chosen to change the smaller font found on the cigar band, as seen on the 700-series Dash 9s, to a larger font, in order to match the font found on the SD70MAC locomotives.

Microscale Industries, the world's largest producer of decals, has enlisted help in order to manufacture a new sheet of these larger font equipped BNSF Dash 9s.

The company is also tracking the color below the logo, which has changed from orange to green on the lower numbered 4400-class BNSF Dash 9s as well.

One other addition being tracked, is the anti-glare panel on the top of the nose, which is leaf green on some units.

If you can add to this list, please contact QStation and your changes will be forwarded to Microscale.
