Tom,
>From a May 10, 1982 Alco Models flier called "Alco Actionline," the
following was listed:
Cat. No. Production Model Detailing
SD-132 40 RS-2 Standard Hood
SD-132P 20 RS-2 Standard Hood and PRR Antenna System
SD-121S 20 RSD-4/5 Standard Hood
SD-121P 20 RSD-4/5 Standard Hood and PRR Antenna System
SD-121 40 RSD-4/5 Espee and Santa Fe Style
The SP/SF version was a short hood lead, and had square screen openings for
the engine room air intake rather than louvers. This version was produced,
as I own three of them, and I have seen two others. The model was based on
the SF version, as the SP prototype varies from the model. Not sure why
Alco Models indicated to you that the SP/SF version was not produced.
