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 |
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! |

Number 1401 was built in September 1965 (c/n 30672) on EMD Order 7824, one of ten SDP35's ordered by the UP, originally to be numbered in the 980-989 series just above the E-units.

SBD SDP35 4541 |
Description: |
SBD SDP35 4541 leaving the yard at Corbin, Kentucky on July 16, 1986, photo by Chuck Zeiler. Built July 1964 as SAL 1101 (c/n 29340), then re-numbered to SCL 602, SCL 1952, L&N 7036, L&N 4541, SBD 4541, CSXT 4541. This was one of those truly remarkable railfan moments. I was lost, but knew there was a railroad yard in Corbin. I drove up the wrong road, and happened upon three SDP35's (#'s 4544 and 4546 trailing) running elephant style, departing the yard. |

SBD SDP35 4546 |
Description: |
On this day SBD SDP35 4546 was the third SDP35 unit back on a train leaving the yard at Corbin, Kentucky on July 16, 1986, photo by Chuck Zeiler. Two views of the rear of a SDP-35 for the price of one. The locomotive to the left is SBD 4544. Numbert 4546 was delivered as SAL 1108, built September 1964 (c/n 29347) on EMD Order 7734. The SAL rostered 20 of these locomotives (#'s 1100-1119), designed for dual service. As it turned out, passenger service soon vanished, and these units spent most of their service lives on freight assignments. It appears to have been renumbered as follows: built as SAL 1108, then SCL 609, then SCL 1959, then L&N 7041, then L&N 4546, then SBD 4546, then CSXT 4546. |
