Canadian National SD75I #5654 in a siding as head power… I think
So, it’s the year of our lord 1994, you already shilled out to EMD for an SD70M, great locomotive, but then GE makes the C44-9W, all hell breaks loose, now you want more power. Never fear, EMD is HERE!!
The SD75M (Also named the SD75I by Canada operators), is essentially an SD70M(I), with the original 16-710G3B engine being replaced by the 16-710G3C found in the SD70MAC. Thus bringing the power from 4000hp, up to 4300hp.
