I saw SW9 [?] R90 yesterday at the Riverside Xcel/NSP near Northtown. Still in full NSP colors... It was running right by the entrance way and I've never seen it before, only heard of it. I guess it comes out into the park area sometimes with cuts of cars when BN is dropping off cuts and they get into a bind for space... Anyone else seen this rare beast? |

Did you manage any pictures? I have been trying for months to get a shot. |

I've only seen it in quick passing while it was behind the Wonka-like wrought iron fence. |

I've seen it once, but no pictures. I forget sometimes that they have a switcher there, but maybe it's because I never see it. FWIW, I think the Sherco Plant in Becker has their own switcher as well, but the only time I've ever seen it was when they were giving tours of the plant 8-10 years ago. I think they were giving rides that day, with the switcher pushing a car or two around the track they had there. I was only a little kid back then, so I don't remember it very well. |

I did manage a shot of it this afternoon, half of the unit was hiding behind some trees but I'm happy to have got the shot I did. |

I'm sorry to say this is the best that I could do. |
