Brian Miller	General	I'm not sure if this is an SD45 rebuild or something that was delivered new, but this unit screams EMD. Interesting how much smaller the U20C looks.	5/6/2007 4:44:30 AM

Mikey Puttock	General	Hi that U20C looks like it's built on Australian loading gauge? I know when the 90 class that run in the Hunter Valley were built in Canada, to see them beside the Canadian units, there was about 3 feet difference in height.	3/6/2008 10:54:19 PM

Tyler Bundy	General	After some quick research, it looks to me that this DDM45 was built for EFVM by EMD as an export loco. Check out the specs at: http://www.thedieselshop.us/Data%20EMD%20DDM-45.HTML It seems that they were built between 1970 and 1976. I don't know if those are new trucks or resized from DD35 trade-ins. Anyone have any info?	4/15/2008 9:51:00 PM

Anders Nyquist	General	The trucks are like that because Brazil runs narrow gauge. thus a six axle unit would have too high of an axle loading.	2/28/2013 1:12:06 AM
