Here the deal. I have researched several sites. I have been trying to confirm or deny I Santa Fe owned Alco C628/630/636. I had bought a dummy SF C628 #7906 for parts for an upgrade and kit bash. but I can also turn this into a powerd unit too. So can any body help with information .

Nope, they never had any C628's.
The last Alco diesels bought by Santa Fe were the fifty RSD15 (DL600b) in the late 1950's. Santa Fe did consider a cowl body version of the C636 but nothing came of it.

The Sf did test out the c628 gold & brown demo models sent out west. Atlas O made the demo models but they are hard to find.
Thanks, thats what I was trying to confirm. So I will contine with plans to use the unpowered SF 628 as a parts source. Once again thanks.
