One share of Burlington Northern Stock is a great gift for any train enthusiast. Burlington Northern Santa Fe Corporation (BNSF), with 34,000 route miles spanning nearly 30 states and two Canadian provinces, currently operates one of the largest railroad networks in North America. BNSF was born in late September of 1995 as a result of the merger between Burlington Northern Inc. and Santa Fe Pacific Corporation. Based in Ft. Worth, Texas, BNSF has created a reliable infrastructure that stretches across two thirds of the U.S.

Railroad stock certificates are quickly becoming collector's items. The Burlington Northern Stock Certificate offers a steel etching of trains from both the Burlington Northern Line and the Santa Fe line. Between the two trains is the classic motif of the stock certificate, a female figure and a finely etched globe.

The Burlington Northern 2000 annual report features the magnificent train traveling at dusk. Inside readers can find a list of the BNSF 2000 Achievement Awards, the company’s plan for growth, and the past year’s financial statements.
