Which ATSF 2600? There have been multiple. Have you tried RRPictureArchives.net?

Also, just ask Google.    Is this the boxcab X B unit off the Super Chief?

Santa Fe surprisingly never had a steam locomotive numbered 2600, but three diesels have borne that designation at different times.  A couple of references indicate that Baldwin DT-6-6-2000 centercabs 2600 and 2602 traded numbers at some point but don't indicate when or why, so I can't tell you for sure just which unit is shown in these photos:

The Baldwins were traded in to GE for U25B's in 1962-63.  A decade later in 1972, Santa Fe's Cleburne Shops turned out a CF7 numbered 2600.  It traded its original round-roof cab for an angular cab at some point:
