Something about that paint scheme....
A GE D9-44CW (Dash-9, which is sort of a generation indicator; 4400 HP, 6-wheel trucks, wide cab). I see that the original paint job on this unit was famously bad. Better, now, but needs a bath.
This big feller was parked where I work--State of Michigan Secondary Complex, near Dimondale--on the old Grand Trunk mainline's passing track. Even a decade ago the only "foreign" paint we'd see on GT was CN, which hardly counts, and an occasional IC; nowadays we see virtually everything.
Far from ideal shooting conditions, as you can perhaps tell, but I couldn't resist the opportunity. Just a gorgeous loco.
