TRANSLATION RESOURCES
BNSF Railway maintains a
Spanish-English/English-Spanish dictionary of railway
terms that is gaining increasing acceptance
among the railways of this continent.
It is compiled by Frank P. Hernández, BNSF's Director of
Transportation (U.S.-Mexico Operations), and is updated approximately
every two weeks. You can download
the latest version from BNSF. It is in Excel spreadsheet format.
If you do not have Excel, get the free Excel Viewer from Microsoft®. On the spreadsheet,
click the tabs at the lower left to switch between "Español-Inglés"
and "English-Spanish."
MEXLIST member Peter
J. C. Horn maintains a similar dictionary, based on a version
of the BNSF dictionary, that also includes terms of interest to the broader
community of railway enthusiasts and historians. You can download it from MEXLIST. It is also in
Excel spreadsheet format as described above.
