SDP40F Type I
|
|
|
After serving Amtrak, many of the venerable SDP40F diesels made their way into freight service for the Santa Fe where they continuned plying the rails for almost 15 additional years before their eventual retirement.
Coming along with their repurposing in freight service, these units were modified with a number of changes from their original Amtrak days -- the entire front porch area was gated in with safety railings, while two notches were introduced on the nose to allow more easy access to the front deck from the steps on the nose for maintenance purposes.
Kato will produce two different variations of the late-appearance freight SDP40F - the Santa Fe and the Maersk (BNSF) types. Each one carrying prototype-specific detailing that represents the individual unit styles.
LokSound versions are expected in late December. Please reserve now -- your shopping cart will show a free zero deposit reservation -- your card is not charged until the time of actual shipment when a $7 Prioirty Mail shipping/handling charge will apply.
