Soo Line SD40-2 6617, now owned by Respondek, has escaped a repaint - for now. On September 30, 2017, this locomotive was working in the Liberty coal mine in Boonville, Indiana, in its original paint. Knowing how much Respondek likes their locomotives in new schemes, expect this SOO paint to go away. Photographed on private property with permission and full Personal Protective Equipment (PPE)
