Thank you for sharing!  I love the Bankrupt Blue ex Rock Island GP38-2 in the last scene.  I wonder what it was doing on the Norfolk Southern?

Terrific video!  Thanks for sharing it with us.

I loved all the standard cab power!  I thought that MILW GP40 was especially interesting, as it didn't appear to have a DB fan.  Did the MILW remove dynamics from factory-equipped GP40s as part of a program, or just on an ad hoc basis?

The GTW picked up 11 such units, GTW 5850-5860, so I'm guessing it's one of those.  I don't see any identification on the side, but it looks like the front number board may read "5858".
