I have read that in the late 1960's the CB&Q units ran from Chicago to Havre Montana and back. Not sure if GN units ran from St Paul to Chicago. Travis Mahan

Some GN & NP freight units made it into Chicago for different reasons but AFAIK the only GN passenger power that made it in was a GN steam engine (Mountain, Northern?) on the occasion of a reequippin

Tom, New Q power was shipped the same way except they were hauled dead in train to Lincoln where they were excepted and placed in service. I believe Santa Fe pulled their new power to Ft. Madison, IA
