Reply to "Difference between the F7 and the F9?"

One still has to be careful as locomotives went through the shops.  Take the 308L for instance:

Garfield Ridge Crossing 0173 [5) BSP

RF 1272 [2) BSP

On Santa Fe's books, it's still an F7, although externally it has received the vertical side vents, FARR stainless steel grills and 48" dynamic brake typical of F9's.

Modified my response to "as built". Yes railroad shops over time changed things. There would have been variations in the fleets as units cycled through. The resources above give information on as delivered.
