The EMD SW600 is a diesel switcher locomotive built by General Motors Electro-Motive Division between February 1954 and January 1962. It shared the same carbody design as EMD's more powerful SW900 and SW1200 models but generated only 600 horsepower from an EMD 567C 6-cylinder engine, and it replaced the SW1 in the EMD catalogue. Only 15 examples were built, for American railroads and industrial customers, which makes it one of the rarer models in the SW switcher line.
