@gaycowboy31 Minot, ND.... it says just that in the description......

How many of these guys are left?
-
@Hemiadda2d I assume this is in Minneapolis/St Paul I have seen a few of these but when I pass on Amtrak its hard to get a good shot there in that CP yard from the train windows
-
EMD, baby!

I have a copy of the RR press from last issue and they ran a article on Milwaukee road lines west. I thought they sent all the GP40s out west once they brought the SD40-2s back east. They said the Geeps were already beat to death, shit that was in 1980! Still runnin! EMD American baby! Too bad Canada has EMD now.

Good video, Jess you're right it was 2026 when you watch it in full screen
-
If that's 2026 (looks like it, but I can't quite tell), then sadly it is repainted into CP colors now and renumbered CP 4612.
Cool video! We had a lone bandit GP38-2 running long hood forward pulling 54 cars once. That was a sight to see (and great to hear!).

Not a bad loco for only having four axles. Not bad at all.
Great job!!! I might just make a recording and put it on a loop for my train room/garage.

It was a whale of a pull for that old veteran! Glad you enjoyed it!
