GN 400 was delivered in May, 1966 to the Dale Street Shops in St. Paul, MN and was christened “Hustle Muscle” by the Great Northern Railway. In 1970, this locomotive became Burlington Northern “6430”.
In September, 1973 “6430” underwent Class One repairs at Livingston, Montana and was repainted in cascade green. At the request of numerous rail fans and employees, “6430” retained its “Hustle Muscle” nickname.
