Perhaps it's a different version. I'm sure many have also seen the BNSF engines featured in GE ads. The UP and NS are also running some good ads. I don't think Railroads ever ran ads for the general population before. When running through Jim's link I came across the video of the new car shops in Minot, North Dakota. I'm sure most know that region has seen a giant boom in their oil production so the BNSF invested some money in that region. I visited the area in 1985 when covering some beginning's of the oil development. I stopped and photographed a vacant area showing the outline and pits of their former GN roundhouse. It was nearly a full circle. If you ever travel in that region pick a time when you won't freeze. Many of the smaller cities still have preserved depots of native stone and brick.
