GN SD9 at Mpls Jct MN in 1955.
Title:  GN SD9 at Mpls Jct MN in 1955.
Description:  This was taken near the end of steam during the transition period. For a while diesels worked along side and with steam. During the fall grain rush some steam engines were pulled out of retirement up to 1958. SD9s survived on the BNSF up to 2011, and some will continue to serve as slugs.
