EMD SD-26 Diesel

In early 1973, Santa Fe instituted a rebuilding program for
their large fleet of SD-24s; the end result of this program
was the SD-26. Fairly extensive modifications were made to
the locomotives, making them visually distinct from stock
SD-24s. The addition of an inertial air filtering system created
a “hump” directly behind the cab. This, in turn,
caused the 4 roof-top air tanks to be separated and relocated
further back along the edges of the roof. A “second generation”
EMD-style traction motor blower bulge was included on the
left side of most rebuilt locomotives. Other spotting features
included the addition of a cab-top beacon and air conditioner
on most units, as well as the relocation of the bell to the
roof. Most SD-26s were retired by Santa Fe in 1985 and 35
of these units were sold to Guilford Transportation Industries
in 1986. Of this group, at least 3 were still in service for
Guilford as of January 2004, over 44 years after they were
built.
