| BN SW1200 179 at Minneapolis, Minnesota on May 23, 1984, photo by Chuck Zeiler. Number 179 was built in March 1955 as NP 120 (c/n 20329) on EMD Order 4290, and became BN 179 some time after the merger. At some point it was converted to power Electric Trailer 2, former NP Baldwin VO-660 number 650, rebuild completed in May 1960 by NP's South Tacoma Shops. Note the "skate" radio antenna above the headlight. |
