SP SDP45 3207
Title:  SP SDP45 3207
Description:  The United Transportation Union struck the UP and the Southern on 16 July 1971, and then the SP and the N&W on 24 July. Because of the strike threat against the SP, Amtrak’s SUNSET LIMITED which should have left New Orleans on Friday 23 July was annulled, and this provided a rare (at that time) opportunity to photograph a set of SUNSET power at NOUPT over that weekend. On the day the strike began, SP SDP45 3207, UP E8B 927B and UP E9A 947 were photographed on the engine service track. (The E-units were eventually renumbered Amtrak 370 and 424.) The strike was quickly ended and the SUNSET left on schedule on Monday 26 July.
