It's rather incredible to think that there was a time many decades ago when F-units were the start power on freight trains, and would have been common place in locations such as here at the north end of North Yard on the BNSF Front Range Sub! This F7 was delivered to the SP&S in 1953, and is now headed back to Washington to the Inland Northwest Railroad Museum. Hopefully, it'll be restored in its SP&S paint.
