Welcome to Tom Dethmers's Railroad Picture Archives!

Front Page Pic Welcome to the RRPictureArchives.NET contributor site of Tom Dethmers.  

I am a retired railroad employee with BNSF, starting in Northtown yard in 1988 and working in Fargo, ND from late 1991 to mid-1997, before moving to Fort Worth, TX. I worked in the clerical department until the end of 2000, and became a dispatcher for the Montana Division in 2001. I have worked mostly in the Twin Cities, Montana and Nebraska Divisions the last decade, and currently work the Hinckley/Superior Relief job, which includes most of the northern half of Minnesota. I have been a life long fan of the railroads, and shot most of my pictures before I started working for BN. I was also actively involved with the Minnesota Transportation Museum from 1981 to 1991. I hope you enjoy some of these memories from 30 plus years ago.

You may browse my collection of pictures via the menu located on the left hand side of the page.  I hope you enjoy the collection and thanks for stopping by!
