#7701 Low profile body for East Coast service w/ low profile fans, air filters

When Amtrak was formed in 1971, Southern was one of the few roads which decided to remain independent, and continued to operate their own
passenger trains using their own equipment.
This Legendary Liveries release proposes that Southern decided to take advantage of a special EMD pricing offer to construct some SDP40F’s for
them concurrent with the production of the Amtrak units- in order to replace some of their own aging passenger power.
