Along with an MTM volunteer named Devin, I was fortunate to get a cab ride in the Hustle Muscle as the MTM crew wrapped up operations for the day. Here is the engineer's seat and control stand in the surprisingly spacious cab. |

Past Meets Present |
| Description: |
Past meets present as the hogger aboard GN 400 (Bob was his name) brings his well-patronized caboose hop back into the grounds of the Jackson Street roundhouse as the crew aboard an eastbound BNSF intermodal with a pair of GEs for power waits for a clear signal out on the old Great Northern main. The MTM hop was so popular folks got to ride in the cab of the Hustle Muscle, and quite a few, too. Wonder how many could fit in the cab of the likes of the BNSF 792? |

Once upon a time Wisconsin Central SD45s rolled through Osceola. Thanks to Canadian National's purchase of the WC, that magnificent stable has been put out to pasture. The Great Northern Historical Society's pride and joy, GN SD45 "Hustle Muscle," however, is at Osceola for the 2015 season, bringing the magic of the SD45 back to the Dresser Subdivision. |
