According to what I just looked up a GP-35 is 56'-2" long, while the
SD40's length was about 66'-5".  There's a ten foot difference there
which would be noticable at LEGO scale.

This info came from:

My train book list the length of one of these engines but not the other
(cannot remember which one at the moment). I have pictures of both, but
the big question remains; are they the same lenght or is one longer than
the other? If one is longer than the other is it something that would be
noticeable at LEGO resolution? For example, 60 vs 40 ft would be
noticeable, but 45 vs 40 ft wouldn't be that big a deal.
