Santa Fe
No. 7031 -1976 Release
Santa Fe did not originally purchase EMD's GP40, but did roster one for a time in the 1980s.
The one and only Santa Fe GP40 came into being after the purchase of the TP&W in 1983. So the 1976 Atlas model was ahead
of its time. Read more about Santa Fe's Lone GP40. The Atlas roadnumber
of 3700 turned out to be incorrect, as Santa Fe originally numbered the ex-TP&W GP40 3461. It later was numbered 2964 and
had a fiery death in a wreck in 1988.
