Nostalgia & History > OTD: Spiffy Santa Fe Snoot ('78)Date: 01/22/19 03:46 OTD: Spiffy Santa Fe Snoot ('78) Author: valmont This sharp looking Santa Fe SD40-2 was sitting in Denver on Jan. 22, 1978. The source of it's nickname is obvious.

Thanks for posting. ALLEN Date: 01/22/19 11:24 Re: OTD: Spiffy Santa Fe Snoot ('78) Author: santafe199 Q: What do you call the horn on this unit?
A: Why, it's a Snooty-Tootie, of course... I'll go take my meds, now... Date: 01/22/19 16:35 Re: OTD: Spiffy Santa Fe Snoot ('78) Author: irhoghead I for one never get tired of seeing this paint scheme. So sharp, especially with those clean silver trucks. Santa Fe was always a class act.
