53 Year Old BN 6009 Grain Elevator Switcher |
Description: |
Here's a shot of the entire unit that was built for the GN in 1952 and is still BN 6009. I saw it from the interstate the night before and thought it was a GP, imagine how excited I was to find a 6 Axle unit! The unit turned 53 years old this month and is still working for the Cargill Grain Elevator, Matoon, IL. I found the info on: http://www.greatnorthernempire.net/index2.htm?GNEGNDieselRosterSD7.htm . |

Description: |
Dad and I chased it to Dexter for the GEVO, I hadn't even realized that the lead unit was an SD70ACe. When it came around the curve I thought it was a SD70M with the new cab until I looked at the number boards above the cab roof. This was also my first consist with Tier 2 units from both builders. |
