Remarks & Notes 
BN 9852, a rare SDP40, still wearing GN Big Sky Blue, pokes its nose out of the roundhouse at Harrison St., Minneapolis, MN, in April 1971. This, one of the newest passenger locos on GN/BN, is like never going to pull another as Amtrak is just a couple weeks away and BN needs this newer power for Freight service. So old Fs and Es will go to Amtrak, and SDP40/45s will be converted and eventually renumbered into freight service.

The EMD SD (special duty) series are a strong and reliable kind of locomotive which still serve America's rails today. They have proved themselves reliable by clocking in several million miles of freight service over several decades.
