New look

[NW Mailing List]

Well at least we out here on the BNSF wear the somewhat less obtrusive 
Orange vests. I used to not care for the orange ones until I started 
working here, and realize that look a little more 'normal' then those 
florescent green/yellow ones. Plus it seems like its easier to find 
generic orange sweatshirts and t-shirts with the required reflective 
stuff on them.
