The HH in the model description stood for High-Hood, and the 600 denoted the horsepower, which came from a 6-cylinder 531 engine. The locomotive was retired in 1964, then served at two grain elevators before leaving service sometime between 1970-1992, and is now on display in Temple, Texas. She has the honor of being the oldest Santa Fe diesel in existance and the second Santa Fe diesel to ever operate. |
