HO-Scale Conversion List Handout
® HO-SCALE COUPLER CONVERSION LIST 7-8-21 The Coupler People Most of the below listings have conversion drawing and instructions on our web site at www.kadee.com/hocc.htm Newer models that have factory installed knuckle couplers are easily converted by using our standard head #148 or scale head #158 Whisker® Couplers. Always check the coupler heights with either our #205 or newer #206 Coupler Height Gauge. This coupler conversion list is our suggested starting coupler for the conversion. (Typically requiring the least modification to a model utilizing our newest couplers even though other couplers also work for the model). Our conversion’s based on only one model from a production run, there may be inconsistencies in a model’s production run that require a different coupler or model modifications to achieve the proper coupler height for coupler function.

EMD SD45 for Train Simulator 2013 Owner´S Manual
EMD SD45 for Train Simulator 2013 Owner´s Manual A little bit of history The EMD SD45 is a six-axle diesel-electric locomotive built by General Motors Electro-Motive Division between December, 1965, and December, 1971. Power was provided by an EMD 645E3 twenty-cylinder engine which generated 3,600 HP. This locomotive shared the same common frame with the EMD SD38, EMD SD39, EMD SD40, and EMD SDP40. A total of 1,260 units were built for American railroads. Following this, the SD45-2 was released as its upgraded replacement. Additional models, like the SD45T-2, featuring the Tunnel Motor design, were released. SD45s had several teething problems. Reliability was not as high as anticipated, due to the twen- ty-cylinder prime mover’s propensity to break its own crankshaft. Even though it created an extra 600 horsepower (450 kW) from the 16-645 in the SD40, some railroads felt it just wasn’t worth it, even after EMD redesigned the block to reduce crankshaft flexing. Buyers included the Southern Pacific, Santa Fe, the Great Northern Railway and the Northern Pacific Railway. (Contrary to what many believe, the SD45 was not a “gas guzzler.” It produced more power per unit of fuel than its 3,000 hp (2,240 kW) counterpart, the SD40. However, it did consume much more fuel at idle than the 16 cylinder prime mover in the SD40, and at the time, standard operating practice amongst US railroads was to leave a diesel locomotive idling when not in use.) Many SD45s can still be found, some rebuilt with sixteen-cylinder 645s, operating for lease companies. -

EMD built 136 locomotives between 1972–1974, primarily for the Atchison, Topeka and Santa Fe Railway (ATSF). The SD45-2 was an improved version of the EMD SD45; the primary visual difference is the lack of flared radiators on the SD45-2. Part of the EMD Dash 2 line, the SD45-2 was an upgraded SD45. Like the SD45, the SD45-2 had an EMD 645E3 20-cylinder engine producing 3,600 horsepower (2,680 kW). The main spotting dif- ference between an SD45 and an SD45-2 was the long hood and the rear radiator. On the SD45 the long hood is flared whereas on the SD45-2 it is vertical and the rear cooling fans are more spread out on the top of the rear of the long hood. This unit used the same frame as the EMD SD40-2 and EMD SD38-2. The largest owner of the SD45-2 was the Atchison, Topeka, & Santa Fe with 90 units, the Clinchfield had 18 units, Seaboard Coast line had 15 units and Erie Lackawanna rostered 13 units. -

They went through SP’s “GRIP” program which upgraded the whole locomotive, becoming SD40R’s. By the late 1980’s, the original SP equipped gyralights became expensive to maintain and were removed to save costs. By 1994, some got repainted into SP’s then-new “speed lettered” scheme. Around this same time, SP contracted MK to rebuild numerous SD40 locomotive cores to basically a “new” version, a SD40M-2. -
