Prototype Information:

As a prototype, the
SD40-2 was the most popular second-generation diesel with sales of over 3000 in
the U.S. and more than 700 in Canada. There were many variations of this
popular diesel because of the long production run, with Early units
representing a pre-1990 appearance and Mid Production units depicting later
runs of locomotives.

Model Information:

Mid Production EMD
SD40-2 locomotives mirror a post-1990 locomotive, with deck mounted ditch
lights so the modeler can use them with their modern freight rolling stock and
in combination with other modern locos. Mid Production road names come with
prototype accurate detailing with regards to horn and air conditioner placement
as well, with Santa Fe (and ex-santa fe, respectively) units having their
airhorns mounted towards the rear and additional antenna and air conditioning
units over the cab.
