The production total of the SD45T-2 locomotive was 247, not 248. The SP 9220 was wrecked in Tucson, AZ in January 1973 and rebuilt with the same frame number by EMD as the SP 9314. That is why you have the anomaly of 248 number slots, but only 247 frame numbers. The SP 9314 is the sole occupant of SP Class EF636-11 and was redelivered to the Southern Pacific in April 1974.

Southern Pacific rostered 163 SD45T-2s and subsidiary Cotton Belt had 84 SD45T-2s.----SSW9389 21:52, 19 November 2005 (UTC)

Cotton Belt #9389 was the 600th 20 cylinder 3600 horsepower locomotive delivered to the Southern Pacific/Cotton Belt by EMD and was chosen to wear Bicentennial Paint when delivered in 1975. ----SSW9389 21:52, 19 November 2005 (UTC)
