Remarks & Notes

GN 314A and a B unit bask in the sun on a frigid January day between runs at Minneapolis. These units were originally ordered for iron ore road service on the Mesabi Division out of Superior, Wis. The Big Sky Blue scheme, less than 3 years old, would give way to Cascade green in less than 90 days, although it would take BN until 1980 to paint all their locomotives.
