SP 5467

This loco was built in 2/1956 with EMD construction number 21292. It was built with boiler controls, but without a steam generator or water tank for reserve passenger service. This meant that it needed a trailing unit such as an F7B to operate in multiple with to provide steam heat to a passenger train. It also featured dual fuel tanks for dual fuel operation. It was painted in standard for the time "black widow" colors and featured a full 5 light headlight arrangement on each end.

She was assigned number SP 3941 in the 1965 system renumbering, but was wrecked at Tehachapi, CA on 3/16/1966 prior to having this number applied.
