I'm sure they inherited at least one from the Great Northern But I'm not sure which one it was. Havre Mont.?I know their is a Shop in Havre, MT.

I'm curious as to whether or not this was a "Hill Line" shop prior to the BN merger and now whether or not its being used on the BNSF. I would think that it would be stupid to have a shop in Pasco when Interbay (Seattle) is so damn close anyway.The facilitys at Pasco are ex-NP. They serviced the SP&S power there too.
