GN NW5 193  Contributor's Pick!       
At the time of BN's formation you could usually count on seeing several of their ten rare GN NW5s at Grand Forks, ND. Here GN 193 taxis by with an MOW train. It has yet to receive its BN number of 993; it would survive on the BN through 1982. Scanned from a 126 (Instamatic) slide.
