Title:  Retired BNSF SD9 at Northtown Mpls Yard in 2011.
Description:  The SD9s ran on the GN, BN and BNSF serving for more than 50+ years of revenue generating service. Its my favorite engine of all time. Note the shop crews put GN on the unit in its final days, just like its first day on the job.

So Long, My Friends
Title:  So Long, My Friends
Description:  Two veteran units await their fate while parked in a small string of stored units (and one snowplow) north of the University Avenue bridge at Northtown. New paint did not ensure the 1720 would roll for the BNSF, its third owner, forever. Thank heavens one of her brethren escaped to the Minnesota Transportation Museum. If only that 45-2 ahead of the 1720 could make such an escape.
