Overview

The first twenty-cylinder diesel ever produced, the EMD SD-45 set new standards in power and performance in the very competitive diesel market of the mid-sixties. This 195-ton workhorse achieved a record-setting 3,600 horsepower, 600 more than the popular SD-40. With powerful looking flared radiators, the SD-45 presented a unique appearance. With about one-quarter of the 1,200 units produced still active, the SD-45 is still a familiar sight on today's railroads more than 30 years after first hitting the rails.

Great Northern named No. 400, the first production SD-45, the "Hustle Muscle" in honor of the unique combination of power and speed produced by what was at the time the most powerful single-engine diesel-electric on the rails. That name captures the spirit and ability of this influential second-generation diesel.

M.T.H. makes the SD-45 available in four different schems sure to add muscle to any layout. Each is available with the standard and optional features listed.
