Electro-motive Corporation (EMC) pre-SC switchers were built with Winton 201-A engines. 175 were built between February 1935 and January 1939. Two pre-production units were built in February 1935. 426, was purchased by the Delaware-Lackawanna Railroad and is on display at Steamtown National Historic Site in Lackawanna Railroad colors. The straight-8 600 hp (450 kW) Winton 201-A engine moved the exhaust stacks off-center to the engineer’s left. The hood on the S series is shorter, and the locomotives have a characteristic, rounded-edged “satchel” i.e. sand box in front of the radiator.
