SP E-units page
The only E-units operated by the SP were lettered for the parent company SP. The study of these beautiful locomotives deserves full coverage as I have given to SP's enormous fleet of F-units. I will do that in time, but for now, I will simply create a place for images. Much more analysis will come later. Stay tuned!
