Partially. The GN #400, the first ever production SD45, named HUSTLE MUSCLE, is owned by the Great Northern Railway Historical Society. It was on loan to the NSSR for around 5 years. In 2000iah, it was taken back to the GNRHS, and is now housed in the Jackson Street Roundhouse and is operated on certain excursions.

And the Museum is not just close, the NSSR departs from the depot.
And fastrains, what are you refering to?

ACTUALLY YOUR BOTH WRONG!!!! ITS AN SDM! LOOK AT THE NOSE!!!!!!! Choped it sure is, upgraded electical cabinet, and new prime mover, all courtacy of the Proctor work forces in 1993. AND RUN O DOSE IT RUN, well accually only to 15 mph, the #5 traction moter is shorting out because we dragged a 20 car special up lemmon drop hill 1 % by itself, there was a p42 that was supposed to be helping but I think we bound and gagged him the Amtrak engineer that is![:I] so I guess it was our falt. LoL BUT IT's THE SAME D[censored] traction moter the Noodle replaced 2 yrs. ago
THE DMIR SHALL NEVER BE TAKEN OVER BY THE NOOOOOODLE!!!!!! (btw, me and max met the chief dispatcher on the Missabe Division today.)

BTW this tis Kale and the dumb one aka max-the cool one
