This loco was built in 1/1980 with GE construction number 42813. It was built as a freight engine. It was painted in standard for the time bloody nose colors and featured a full 5 light headlight arrangement on both the front and rear end.

She was repainted into SP's speed lettering scheme following the SP's merger with the D&RGW railroad. With the new lettering, she became an SP unit, retaining her number.
