Cat-powered SD40-2  Contributor's Pick!       
BN 6330 was a garden-variety SD40-2 until 1987 when BN installed a Caterpillar 3612 engine in it as a test. The resulting 3800 HP unit, actually called an SD40C by the road, was tested across the system for several years.

Tim Everett General Is this a modified SD40-2 or a SD45? It has flared radiators all the way to back of the engine, but also has long platforms? Does anyone know what this is? Nice engine though! 9/6/2010 11:49:58 AM
scott schroeder General TRP Issue #18 (page 63) says it's an SD40C because it has a Caterpillar engine. 3/17/2019 11:38:22 AM
