When I was a kid, BN had about a half dozen SDP40s on their roster. The steam generators had, of course, been removed. BN liked to use them as power on the Beer Run train in Denver (between Denver and Golden). It was rather cool seeing one of these units, now wearing blue, in Montana. On this evening, the unit is on the "LM" manifest.

290 is the only (former) SDP40 on MRL's roster I believe, long since converted to SD40-2 specs. It usually shows up on work trains.
