The Great Northern Railway (GN) main line stretched 1,700 miles from St. Paul, Minnesota, to Seattle, Washington, and was the most northern transcontinental railroad in the United States. In addition, GN branch lines stretched north from the Twin Cities to Superior and the Minnesota Iron Ore Range, and from Grand Forks, North Dakota, to Winnipeg, Manitoba; through Montana to Great Falls, Helena and Butte, and from Seattle to Vancouver, British Columbia. Other popular Great Northern passenger trains were the BadgerGopher (St. PaulSuperiorDuluth), Dakotan (St. PaulMinot), Cascadian (SeattleSpokane), Red River (St. PaulGrand Forks), Internationals (SeattleVancouver) and Winnipeg Limited (St. PaulWinnipeg). Historic images include 440 steam locomotive William Crooks, the first steam locomotive to operate in Minnesota. Like other railroads, Great Northern purchased diesel locomotives from ElectroMotive Division consisting of the FT, F3, F7 and E7. Later models were U25B, U28B, U33C, SDP40, SDP45 and the first SD45 named Hustle Muscle. Also pictured are boxcab Z1, Y1 and W1 electric locomotives.
