DMIR 409
Title:  DMIR 409
Description:  Here's a close up shot of DM&IR SD40 - 3 #409 with the other power at Proctor, DM&IR was the only RR to not get standard wide cab EMDs or any GEs, I won't been surprised if it was still under GLT ownership that it would have gotten secondhand SD50s and SD40 - 2s, but that will never happen, maybe in dreams
