Backing to their train  Contributor's Pick!       
Dad took a trip to New Mexico in January 1979. The details are lost to me now. He caught a northbound at Socorro, the power having just cut off the train to make a pick up. The SD 26s were SD 24s rebuilt to 2625 HP, which extended their service lives not only on Santa Fe, but for a good many years on Guilford as well.
