More than a month before BNSF would roster its first SD70ACe, the original BNSF 9284 and two sister SD60s lead an Ardoch coal empty off the Glasston sub. Less than four years later, the ACe would multiply in numbers, eventually pushing the SD60M into the 8100-series on BNSF's roster. With the SD60M falling prey and being parked during the recent economic downturn, it's still a mystery if shots like this will ever be possible again. More info at Grand Forks Railfanning.
