[QUOTE="Sandpatch, post: 546217, member: 10543"] That's a very good question and I'm uncertain. I recall reading somewhere that it cost the SOU and N&W (another high hood proponent) an additional $10,000/Unit for the high hood. Maybe they thought to curb costs late in their histories? Speaking of high hoods, I hit paydirt today when I found NS's SOU SD-40 Heritage Unit in Columbia, SC. She was built in '71, retired in '07, rebuilt in Altoona in '15 and repainted in Chattanooga. She roams the Piedmont Division working trains as needed and spreading good cheer with a regal paint scheme. [ATTACH=CONFIG]205339._xfImport[/ATTACH] [/QUOTE]
