Found this website talking about the SL series of engines - http://www.trainweb.org/westernrails/ge_sl/sl.htmlBN1100 is actually a SL-144, not an SL-44 as said by the picture.According to the website, the engines were returned to GE circa 1984, so that photograph is from some time previous.
Up in Northtown yard...yes. Someone remind me i need to take a trip up to that yard. And i would see where you get the euro look from, but i think it looks more like one of the GE 44-ton switchers.Close relative, perhaps? Hey, i have a Lego locomotive thats very similar to that design..
