8924 at Geiger

Here's one from the archives: NIWX 8924, and EMD SD45 still equipped with its 20 cylinder 645 prime mover, leads a pair of empty centerbeam cars and WRIX 3000 near Medical Lake, WA. The 8924 was built for the Seaboard Coast Line as number 2024. It served on Montana Rail Link for several years before being sold to NIWX Corporation and subsequently leased to the Eastern Washington Gateway Railroad. It was eventually sold to VLIX and restored to its original paint and number. It recently gained some fame while accompanying Clinchfield Railroad F3 No. 800 during CSX's 2017 Santa train under the guise of CRR No. 3632.
