Posted by George Patton on May 27, 2008  Rare unit to be painted in the heritage 1 scheme. Nice shot! Posted by ns_7011 on May 27, 2008  Does BNSF have any of these units left or are they all retired? Posted by Chris Long on May 28, 2008  I have seen other SD9s in Heritage 1 but they all had the short hood cut down. This is the first high nose I've ever seen. Rare indeed. Great photo. Posted by J. C. Smith, Jr. on May 28, 2008  In monitoring this site nearly every day, I can report that there are still SD9s in service on BNSF, some not rebuilt and some still in green, but all of the class are being renumbered into the 1700-series. Posted by Jason Myers on May 28, 2008  Nice shot Craig! She looks really sharp in that paint scheme. Got to love those SD9's! Posted by Wyatt McCoy on July 1, 2008  There are still a few around. I saw one Saturday at Galesburg, IL come off of the Peavine.
