PURCELL OK July 1977 -- Amtrak SDP40F 509 and an E unit are on the point of train No. 15, The Lone Star, as it accelerates south. In the background Santa Fe SD45 5566 awaits a signal to proceed south as GP39-2 3648 sits on the house track with a work train. EMD built the 509 (s/n 72694-10) in June 1973. It became EMDX 218 in blue paint. (Date of photo approximate, roster information from http://www.textfiles.com/fun/amtrak1.txt)
