GN SD45 #400 "Hustle Muscle" at the Jackson Street Roundhouse
Title:  GN SD45 #400 "Hustle Muscle" at the Jackson Street Roundhouse
Description:  When I first heard of Hustle Muscle being moved to the Jackson Street Roundhouse, we got a chance to go there, and for the first time in my life, I got to see the real Great Northern "Hustle Muscle", it was amazing to touch the very first producted SD45. The photos I got of it were lost since then, I refound today. This is trip there was on the 32nd Anniversary of the Edmund Fitzgerald's Sinking in Lake Superior
