The rebuilt units were GP9's. This picture shows why railfanning was a lot more interesting back in the 1960's into the 1980's.

Love this photo, Mike. I miss the Milwaukee Road as well as the SOO. Thanks for taking me back to a more innocent time.

My very first cab ride was on MILW 963 - it was working the industries in Red Wing, MN and I was a kid hanging around the depot with a friend watching the scene when they stopped in front of us and asked if we'd like to ride along as they worked.

Kent, thanks for the correction. I’ll fix it in the caption.

Terrific photo. I miss living in the Twin Cities. There were multiple fun places to watch trains.
