Sandwiched between these CN SD75s is  Duluth, Missabe & Iron Range (DMIR)#403, now a SD40-3; a rare treat in Southern Ontario. I saw this unit go by when in Dundas, and gave chase just because I may not see one along this line again. And I never did, other than units done over in CN. I would imagine they are all now sporting their CN jackets, and according to CTG there are but 9 left of the original 20 in this series. The DMIR was acquired by CN two years before this photo was taken. Power is CN 5796, DMIR 403 and CN 5729.
