Title:  AT&SF SD45-2 5630
Description:  AT&SF SD45-2 5630, Corwith Yard, Chicago, Illinois, September 1979, photo by Chuck Zeiler. This locomotive was built in May 1972 (c/n 7391-6), was later rebuilt to SD45-2u 7202 (although it MAY not have worn that number), was renumbered to 5802, and eventually became BNSF 6452, then NREX 6452.

AT&SF SD45-2 5691
Title:  AT&SF SD45-2 5691
Description:  AT&SF SD45-2 5691 ( far right ) at Corwith Yard in Chicago, Illinois on an unknown day in September 1979, Kodachrome by Chuck Zeiler. Built in May 1973 ( c/n 72642-5 ), it was rebuilt at San Bernardino in May 1986 to SD45-2u 5817. It was painted in the SPSF Kodachrome paint scheme and assigned number 7717 so as not to conflict with SP's numbers. I don't know how long it was 7717, if it ever was. It was repainted back to standard AT&SF blue sometime before January 1991, became BNSF 6467 on November 25, 1999, and it appears it now resides in South America.

Built in May 1972 (c/n 7391-36) it was rebuilt as San Bernardino in March 1986, outshopped in SPSF (Kodachrome) paint, assigned number 7204. It may or may not have actually worn that number.

AT&SF SD45-2 5704
Title:  AT&SF SD45-2 5704
Description:  AT&SF SD45-2 5704, location, photographer, and exact date unknown, Chuck Zeiler collection. The Kodak Kodachrome slide mount is stamped JAN 76C8, and to me it LOOKS like Corwith Yard. Number 5704 was built in May 1973 (c/n 72642-18) one of five SD45-2's painted in the Bicentennial paint scheme (#'s 5700-5704). The trailing unit has a gold-trimmed medallion with an eagle behind the cab (I believe it was the Great Seal of the United States), this unit has sheet metal in place for the eagle medallion, but it is painted at the time of this photo. Later photos show an eagle in this location. According to http://rosters.gcrossett.com/atsf/ this unit received bi-centennial paint at San Bernardino sometime between January 6-13, 1976, and was repainted back to standard AT&SF blue June 15, 1978. It was rebuilt at San Bernardino to SD45-2u 5834, outshopped during September 1986, and became BNSF 6484 on January 21, 2000. The trailing unit is 5701 built in May 1973 (c/n 72642-15), delivered in blue warbonnet, repainted bi-centennial around March 1975, repainted back to blue April 19, 1977, becoming BNSF 7508 January 19, 2000, and renumbered to BNSF 6523 during December 2006.

AT&SF SD45-2 5702
Title:  AT&SF SD45-2 5702
Description:  AT&SF SD45-2 5702 at Argentine Yard, Kansas City, Kansas on August 14, 1975, Kodachrome by Paul L. Strang, Chuck Zeiler collection. Built in May 1973 (c/n 72642-16) this was one of five AT&SF SD45-2's known to have been painted in Bicentennial paint. It was outshopped by EMD in standard AT&SF blue warbonnet paint, was repainted at San Bernardino sometime around May-June 1975 to bi-centennial paint, repainted back to blue warbonnet August 17, 1977, rebuilt at San Bernardino to SD45-2u 5842 outshopped in October 1986, and became BNSF 6492 January 29, 2000. I count 19 stars on this side, does that mean anything?
