AMTK SW8 750 |
| Description: |
Amtrak SW8 750 at about 18th Street in Chicago, Illinois on December 21, 1987, Kodachrome by Chuck Zeiler. All the resources I found so far indicate that this locomotive was built at EMD's, Cleveland, Ohio plant as LV 275 in December 1952, traded by Conrail (as # 8689) to Amtrak in May 1983. However I have not (yet) found an explanation for the NW2 style radiator front end or the unusual (for an SW8) roof-mounted cooling fan. Also, it appears that the hood lost the taper at the cab end. Photographic evidence shows CR 8689 in standard SW8 body configuration when traded to Amtrak, suggesting that the modifications were done by Amtrak. |
