AT&SF RSD5 2151
Title:  AT&SF RSD5 2151
Description:  AT&SF RSD5 2151 at La Junta, Colorado on August 17, 1965, Kodachrome by Chuck Zeiler. Built in June 1953 (c/n 80598) as 2151 (2nd) it was retired and traded to EMD on a SD45 order September 22, 1969. The AT&SF rostered both RSD4's (10 units) and RSD5's (53 units), the mechanical difference being a larger main generator (GE model GT 566 on the RSD5). The external spotting difference is the presence of the intercooler pipes placed above the air tanks on the RSD5. The RSD5 could be set up to have the long hood or the short hood as the forward end, in this case, the short hood is front.

SP RSD5 2865
Title:  SP RSD5 2865
Description:  Southern Pacific Alco RSD5 units 2865, 2859 and 2867 were on an eastbound transfer run on the Southern Railway’s OUTER BELT, between the Elysian Fields Avenue overpass and L&N JUNCTION. The train delivered 39 cars to the L&N at L&N JUNCTION and then continued on to the Southern's OLIVER YARD with 82 cars. The 2865 showed evidence of its recent renumbering from Texas & New Orleans 164. It had been built in October 1953, was retired in July 1969 and was used as trade-in credit to EMD.

SP RSD5 5298
Title:  SP RSD5 5298
Description:  SP RSD5 5298, Ogden, Utah, October 3, 1958, photographer unknown, Chuck Zeiler collection. The SP was the largest owner of the RSD5, with the SP proper owning 36 units, and subsidiary T&NO owning 24. Some units, including this one, were traded back to Alco in 1960 on an order of RSD12's, with some of the trade-in components reused on the RSD12 order, notably the trucks. Locomotive #'s 5294-5307 and #'s 5336-5339 were set up long hood forward (front), and #'s 5445-5507 (later #'s 2871-2885) were set up with the short hood as front. On the SP, units set up with the long hood as front indicated their intended service as switchers/branch line locomotives, and those set up with the short hood as front indicated their intended service was as road helpers. This particular RSD5 was built in 1953, SP class DF-115.

Title:  PRR 8446, AS-16AM, 1963
Description:  Chione. Here is a duplicate 35mm color slide via Al Chione that was taken in Indianapolis, Indiana, on 11 August 1963. The photographer is not identified. Shown here is Pennsylvania Railroad engine #8446, an AS-16A road switcher built by the American Locomotive Company as an AS-16A in October of 1952, rated at 1,600 horsepower, and later rebuilt as an AS-16AM. All of that black smoke reminds me of the good ol' days of steam!

Shown here (R to L) are PRR engines #8446, #9623, and #9556. #8446 is an AS-16AM built by the American Locomotive Company in October of 1952 and rated at 1,600 horsepower. #9623 is an AF-16 built by the American Locomotive Company in December of 1951 and rated at 1,600 horsepower. #9556 is an EF-15 built by GM-EMD in September of 1948 and rated at 1,500 horsepower. They're passing under the 8th Street Bridge into the Westbound Receiving Yard with an 85-car mixed-cargo freight train and N-8 caboose #478021. Partially visible at the far left is ROSE Tower.
