Christmas Surprise - Rare SOO Line SD60M as 7th Unit on DM&E Train 276

Christmas Eve on my way to grocery shopping, passing the yard in Huron, SD, I encountered a SOO Line SD60M sitting on the engine track, I posted the sighting online and Brent Erdmann posted a reply stating that the unit will go out on Christmas 276-25 on duty at 1400, so I went out and caught the train leaving Huron (since I was alone, and bored with nothing to do), and followed him to Volga, taking photos and video a few times along the way during a beautiful sunset. Enjoy the video! Any comments, suggestions, corrections welcome.
