SAL SDP35 1107
Title:  SAL SDP35 1107
Description:  Seaboard Air Line SDP35 1107 at Hialeah, Florida on March 20, 1965, Kodachroe by Kenneth M. Ardinger, Chuck Zeiler collection. Built as number 1107 in September 1964 (c/n 29346) on EMD Order 7734, powered by the 567D3A 16-cylinder turbocharged diesel, it appears it was later numbered to SCL 608, then SCL 1958, then L&N 7040, then L&N/SBD/CSXT 4545. A total of 35 SDP35's were built between July 1964 and September 1965, almost all (see Comment below, thanks Jonathan) equipped with a steam generator at the rear, resulting in a squared off hood end and the rear steps became vertical, more like a ladder than stairs. The SAL owned 20 of these, originally numbered 1100-1119.

SAL SDP35 1115
Title:  SAL SDP35 1115
Description:  Seaoard Air Line SDP35 1115 and Chicago & Eastern Illinois GP35 261 on the setout track at EMD's plant in La Grange, Illinois on November 15, 1964, Ektachrome by Chuck Zeiler. Sorry about the poor quality of this photo, it was an afterthought. I was photographing locomotives behind me on Pielet Borthers setout track that were about to be scrapped, and as I was leaving, I turned around and shot this, finishing out the roll of film, not thinking too much about new locomotives. I figured I had plenty of time to shoot these two on a better day. Live and learn!
