BN 5607


Here is a bit of research on BN U25C 5607 which had its start as the NP 2507.

It was built by GE in May of 1964 as Northern Pacific 2507 and after 1970 it was renumbered BN 5607. Info I have says in the early 70's it was assigned to Mississippi St on the Twin Cities region along with most of the other ex-NP U25C's.

The BN 5607 made it out to the Northwest a couple of times in 1979, one of them 12-10-79 when I photographed it at Interbay, WA.

Note the black is much higher on the unit making it look a bit different from most other BN painted locomotives. A few years later it was retired in March of 1981. It appears to have been sent to Tacoma, WA for scrapping that same year.
