Remarks & Notes

Union Pacific purchased eight EMD SD40X demonstrators. Six had flared radiators while two had flush to the body style radiators. They were built on SD35 frames. They look like SD45s but much shorter frames. The SD40X's radiators had only two section screens while the SD45 had three.
