I've gotten used to seeing these 3 and the other 3 on this line the past 2+ years. I'm gonna miss them when they're replaced by some GP40s that are coming up from the KCS.
This power works local trains between Flaxton and Minot on the Portal Subdivision.
This subdivision begins at Niobe after breaking off from the Crosby sub and terminates at the US/Canadian border at Northgate, about 14 miles later.
Word is These ex-SP Units are Headed Out and Some GP40s Are Coming up to Replace Them
The cars in the background are sitting on the NPR (ex-SOO) Wheat Line which has its western terminus in Kenmare.
