Due to their short-lived presence on FWWR property, Coe Rail's F7 locomotives and the Texas Star Clipper dinner train could be considered temporary visitors in their own right, but the BNSF GP39E makes this photograph even more noteworthy. Coe's Texas Star Clipper F7 407 leads a westbound Tarantula passenger train out of Grapevine, Texas on January 23, 2000, trailed by BNSF GP39E 2911, added to help power the extra long train (6 cars, expanded to accommodate passengers going to the Ft Worth Stock Show & Rodeo).
