And for more... My Favorite train site: http://www.northeast.railfan.net/home.html First off, the EMD SD's and other 6 axles... SD7, high nose: http://archive.trainpix.com/BN/EMDORIG/SD7/6033.HTM Features: curved roof, curved fuel tank, little Dynamic Brake housing (angled vent half way along the long hood). SD9: http://archive.trainpix.com/BN/EMDORIG/SD9/6123.HTM Features: Curved roof, curved tank, no DB, or db. Hard to tell apart from SD7. SD10: http://www.northeast.railfan.net/images/tr_dme553.jpg Features: Hard to find anymore, pic it out from the strange vent behind the cab. SD18: http://www.northeast.railfan.net/images/tr_co7306.jpg Features: Um, yeah, look at the one peice front window, only a SD26 (6 axle), RS27, and GP9 (both w/ 4 axles) have the same. SD20: http://www.northeast.railfan.net/images/tr_icg2028.jpg Features: Oooh, the angled roof comes in... SD26: http://www.northeast.railfan.net/images/tr_sf4668.jpg Features: Help me!

SD40X: http://gelwood.railfan.net/other/up/up3045.jpg Features: Here the SD45 vents come into paly, but with the longer ends SD40: http://archive.trainpix.com/BN/EMDORIG/SD40/6335.HTM Features: long ends I give up, look for your self: http://www.northeast.railfan.net/diesel.html all diesels...
