This SW1500 powered locomotive is decorated in the red and yellow ‘Kodachrome Scheme’ and runs on aluminum Flexicoil trucks. This Southern Pacific locomotive was repainted in the experimental “Kodachrome” paint scheme created for the proposed 1980 “Southern Pacific Santa Fe” merger. However, this merger was blocked by the ICC and the “SF” was never added to the scheme. It was later repainted again back into the previous grey and scarlet scheme. The EMD SW1500 is a 1,500 hp diesel-electric locomotive intended for switching service.
