EMD SD60M

Diesel and Electric Locomotives

The EMD SD60M is the North American safety cab version of the SD60, a six-axle diesel-electric locomotive built by General Motors Electro-Motive Division, with a full-width short hood. Early models until 1990 had a three-piece windshield with vertical windows, nicknamed triclops, identical to those on the SD40-2F and F59PH, while production from 1991 used two sloped panes and a somewhat shorter, side-tapered nose. Buyers included Conrail, Union Pacific, Burlington Northern and the Soo Line Railroad. Conrail's orders were split between Norfolk Southern and CSX in 1999, and all their SD60M units have since been scrapped, sold or retired.
