C-415's were built in three versions. The medium height version of
which there were 13 - the demo & CRIP 415-424 and SP&S 100-101. The
high cab version were SP 2400-2409; Columbia & Cowlitz 701 & Chehalis
Western 684. The single low height cab was Monongahela Connecting 701.
A total of 26 locos built between 4/66 & 12/68.
