The EMD SW900 is a diesel switcher locomotive built by General Motors Electro-Motive Division and General Motors Diesel (GMD) between December 1953 and March 1969. Power was provided by an EMD 567C 8-cylinder engine that generated 900 horsepower (670 kW). Built concurrently with the SW1200, the eight-cylinder units had a single exhaust stack. The last two SW900s built by GMD for British Columbia Hydro were built with 8 cylinder 645E engines rated at 1,000 horsepower (750 kW). 260 examples of this locomotive model were built for American railroads and 97 were built for Canadian railroads. Canadian production of the SW900 lasted three and a half years past EMD production. Seven units were exported to Orinoco Mining Co (Venezuela); two units were exported to Southern Peru Copper Co; and five units were exported to the Liberian American-Swedish Minerals Company. Total production is 371 units. Some SW900s were built with the generators from traded in EMC Winton-engined switchers and were classified as SW900M by EMD. Units rebuilt from SW or SC model locomotives developed 600 or 660 horsepower with the older generators instead of the full 900 horsepower of the SW900. In the early 1960s, the Reading Company sent 14 of their Baldwin VO 1000 model switchers to EMD to have them rebuilt to SW900 specifications. The Reading units retained the Baldwin switcher carbody and were rated at 1000 horsepower by EMD. A Cow-calf variation, the TR9, was cataloged, but none were built. (en) La série EMD SW900 est une série de locomotives de manœuvre diesel construite par General Motors Electro-Motive Division et General Motors Diesel (GMD) entre décembre 1953 et mars 1969. La puissance est fournie par un moteur EMD 567C de 8 cylindres générant 900 chevaux (670 kW). Construit simultanément avec les SW1200, les unités de huit cylindres ont une seule cheminée d'échappement. Les deux dernières séries de SW900 construites par GMD pour British Columbia Hydro ont été construites avec des moteurs 8 cylindres 645E avec une puissance nominale de 1 000 chevaux impériaux (745,69987158227 kilowatts). 260 exemplaires de cette locomotive ont été construits pour les compagnies de chemin de fer des États-Unis, et 97 ont été construits pour les chemins de fer canadiens. La production canadienne de la série SW900 a duré trois ans et demi. Sept unités ont été exportées pour être exploitées par l'Orenoque Mining Co (Venezuela) ; deux unités ont été exportées vers le Southern Peru Copper Co ; et cinq unités ont été exportées vers le Liberia-American Mining Co. La production totale de 371 unités. Certains SW900 ont été construites avec les générateurs obtenus de locomotives EMC à moteur Winton et ont été classés comme SW900M par EMD. Les unités reconstruites à partir de modèles SW ou SC développent 600 ou 660 chevaux avec les anciens générateurs au lieu des 900 chevaux de la SW900. Au début des années 1960, la Reading Company a envoyé 14 de ses locotracteurs Baldwin VO 1000 à EMD pour les faire reconstruite suivant le cahier des charges des SW900. Ces unités ont conservé la carrosserie Baldwin et ont été évalués à 1000 chevaux par EMD. Une version « cow-calf », le TR9, a été catalogué, mais aucun n'a été construit. (fr) |
