There are photographs of 2 of those 6 locomotives on the Missabe website.

The Sept 1992 issue of CTC Board says they were primarily used for switching at Two Harbors.

The RSD15's (DMIR 50-55) were later sold to B&LE (881-886) and eventually wound up on Cartier Ry, which had become the Alco repository for United States Steel roads.
