Fresh repaint appearance
After the BNSF merger of 1995, Santa Fes fleet of GP39-2us were repainted into the then-new BNSF H1 paint scheme. Although most of the details remained the same, some units had headlights relocated to the nose and horns moved to the long hood roof. BNSF still uses most of the fleet today, albeit some repainted into BNSFs current -wedge- scheme.
