The EMD F45 is a C-C cowled diesel-electric freight locomotive built by General Motors Electro-Motive Division from 1968 to 1971. A 20-cylinder EMD 645E3 engine generated 3,600 horsepower. After sponsoring the FP45 passenger locomotive, the Santa Fe asked for a similar freight unit, and the F45 was essentially an SD45 given the same cowl treatment. The Santa Fe ordered two lots of twenty, while the Great Northern, seeing a way to protect crews in winter operation, ordered units that arrived in Burlington Northern paint after the merger. Burlington Northern placed a final order for twenty in 1971.
