On the former Rock Island main line to Limon, Colorado, an eastbound Kyle grain train arrives at Seibert to do some switching at the Seibert Equity Co-Op Association grain elevator on May 6, 2014. Kyle EMD SD45T-2 No. 3099 is the recently repainted former Southern Pacific No. 9330, with trailing sister No. 9362 still in remarkably good SP paint.
The EMD SD (special duty) series are a strong and reliable kind of locomotive which still serve America's rails today. They have proved themselves reliable by clocking in several million miles of freight service over several decades.
