EMD SD75M

Diesel and Electric Locomotives

The EMD SD75M is a diesel-electric locomotive built by General Motors Electro-Motive Division as part of the SD75 series produced between 1994 and 1996, an extension of the SD70 series. Raising the output of the 16-710-G3 engine from 4,000 to 4,300 horsepower made the SD75 possible, as a response to General Electric's Dash 9-44CW. The M denotes the North American style cab, and it can be told from the SD70M by a bulge below the inertial air intake on the right side. It sold only 76 units, to Santa Fe and BNSF, and Santa Fe's SD75Ms were the railroad's last new locomotives.
