I was a kid when Southern was running SD's on their mainline through SC. Would the SD40 or 45 have been most represented on their road trains?

From what I recall the Southern Railway mostly used SD40-2s and SD40s in the 1970s and 1980s if that is the time period you are referring to. Most of the SD45s were gone or going with the formation of NS.
Yes...late 70's - 1985. Thanks. Glad Lionel is offering both. I have the Atlas from 2007...MTH and plan to have both Lionel versions.
I am a seaboard man but due to going with my granddad.I became a fan of their sd units.And their higher pitched horns.Seeing them run long end forward was a suprise to me.
May have been less of them.....but nothing like see SRR Hammerheads running at the head of a fast freight!!!!
