The one time in the summer of 2009 that I caught three Js on a train, it was the morning of July 5, 2009. Posted one shot of the trio already on Flickr a few years ago, but shot it about four times up the hill as it slowly worked up the grade. Here 662, 665, and 659 shove M301 away from Nopeming Jct., west of Duluth, MN. The 662 was the only J-Ball that we got to shoot around the Twin Ports in 2009.
A trio of non-turbo SD38-2s made for an sound effect flashback to the Missabe days of 3-packs of the 200s. Back in 2009 they shoved northbounds that took the Peg all the way to Simar, which made it easier with track authorities.
This northbound is taking the former DW&P on the left, with the former Missabe to the right. Both lines are now 100% CTC from here to the Iron Range and now CN Dash 9 helpers cut off further south.
Grab shot as JS 8167 backed its empty train.
A JS isn't exactly pretty, and the Sandaoling mine was't bothered about external appearance, but these were purposeful machines that did their job effectively. In fact, I prefer their looks to the SY 2-8-2.
The boiler looks long and thin but a lot of it is firebox. Note the pony truck wheels are smaller than those of the trailing truck. And that profusion of fittings and pipes; George Jackson Churchward (and his successors) would have been horrified.

A rather severe secretary, perhaps? Crisp white blouse, short skirt, high heels and a tight belt with a big buckle.
