On a sunny and bitter cold morning, the Recycle Job heads west through downtown Chicago, about to pass under 18th Street. With a friendly wave from the conductor's seat, the last Grand Trunk Western SD40-2 in original paint leads the way, followed by a Bessemer SD38AC.
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.
Not
