Waving the flags!!! Well, almost. I discovered these really cool railroad flags and I just wanted to share them with you all. As you are aware, we have a huge layout named: "The Glacier Line" which is primarily focused on Marias Pass, Montana and the Great Northern Railway.
James Jerome Hill ("The Empire Builder") eventually gained full controlled over the Burlington Route a.k.a. CB&Q, Northern Pacific and the Spokane, Portland and Seattle railways. Unfortunately, we do NOT have a SP&S flag, YET. We are going to have to custom make one ourselves.
These four railroads merged together in March 3rd, 1970, on what became know as "M Day." These became the Burlington Northern. In 1996, Santa Fe merged in as well and is known today as the Burlington Northern Santa Fe (BNSF) railroad.
I like having these flags as they represent the Glacier Line and reality prior to 1970. Maybe one day I'll add a BN and BNSF flag! I'm glad these turned up on Ebay, because I've searched for them before with no luck for many years.
