From the west end of CN’s Saskatoon yard on the Watrous subdivision, the Rosetown subdivision branches south-westward from Roskin Jct., and by lucky coincidence on Sunday 1981-09-27, I saw a trio of matching GMD-1s, 1054 + 1041 + 1024, with one gondola and caboose heading out of the yard, and at 1311 CDT was able to catch a photo at mileage 1.1 from Township Road 362A. On Google aerial views, that road looks remarkably like a previous railway grade, perhaps an earlier alignment of the Rosetown sub.
