(1) EMD SW-1200 120-Ton Locomotive. These locomotives combine the ability to
achieve significant levels of tractive effort due to their weight of 120 tons and an engine rated at
1,200 horsepower with the flexibility of a switch engine configuration. The windows have been
enlarged for enhanced visibility during switching operations. They are capable of being linked in
multiple unit (MU) operation when higher tractive effort is needed. These units have been totally
rebuilt before entering the fleet and have upgraded control stands complete with series 26-NL
braking systems.
