53 Year Old BN 6009 Grain Elevator Switcher
Title:  53 Year Old BN 6009 Grain Elevator Switcher
Description:  Here's a shot of the entire unit that was built for the GN in 1952 and is still BN 6009. I saw it from the interstate the night before and thought it was a GP, imagine how excited I was to find a 6 Axle unit! The unit turned 53 years old this month and is still working for the Cargill Grain Elevator, Matoon, IL. I found the info on: http://www.greatnorthernempire.net/index2.htm?GNEGNDieselRosterSD7.htm .
