The EMD SW1200 is a four-axle diesel switcher locomotive built by General Motors Electro-Motive Division from January 1954 to May 1966, with more built by General Motors Diesel in Ontario between September 1955 and June 1964. An EMD 567C 12-cylinder engine generated 1,200 horsepower, and late units from 1966 used the 567E. It was the third 1,200 horsepower SW series switcher after the SW7 and SW9 and differed from the SW9 mainly in its more reliable engine. Builders delivered 737 to US railroads, 287 to Canadian railroads, four to Brazil, 25 to a Chilean industrial firm and three to the Panama Canal Railway.
