SL 80 - FresnoSubber/Fresno-and-Co.-Trainbuild-Tomfuckery GitHub Wiki
Beginning in 1974, to cater to the industrial market that their popular tonners used to dominate (namely the 44 and 70 tons), GE conceived their SL series for both domestic and international use.
The SL-80 is the smallest example, with a maximum weight rating of 80t (hence the name) and a top speed of 21mph to boot. Just five of these locomotives were built.
