One long blast from BNSF 8965 signals the brakeman that BNSF 8965 is set and centered (meaning the brakes are set and the reverser is centered on BNSF 8965 letting the brakeman go inbetween to connect the airlines to BNSF 5624. |

The Hook was so gentle you could hear the knuckles connect with no jolt or any loud clash like you see and hear most of the time when locomotives hook up to each other. A Very experienced Engineer was on BNSF 8965 for the HOOK!!! |
