ATSF 5256
Title:  ATSF 5256
Description:  A former Amtrak SDP40 is the trailing unit of a Santa Fe manifest freight rolling through Tower 55. These units were not built with front walkways but a small pathway. Santa Fe added a larger walkway, handrails, and notches in the nose for a stepwell. This unit is maintained under an agreement with MK, note the MKM lettering below the road number.
