A Railfan in Brazil
Here is the template of a SD70ACe/45 assembled ina C30-7. This locomotive will run from the EMD plant to Eldorado Co to check the clearence in tunnels and bridges to see if is it possible to send the Sd´s by rail. We think that a narrow tunnel in Belo Horizonte city s too tight to the SD7-´s.

I tried to post the photo.
Second photo in post #7
Whitish gray object hangs down from the locomotive chassis to the left of the open panel door.
It appears to have a flared speaker cone from a speaker driver.

A better view of that strange thing. I asked some friends and one said me it can be a electronic bell.
