In 1975, the SBK took delivery of a pair of brand new General Electric 47T end cab switchers, the first brand new power for the SBK in almost 50 years. N1 & N2 as they were numbered would become the sole power of the SBK up until today. As deleivered, both engines came in the MTA Grey, Blue & Yellow paint. This would last until 1983 when they were repainted into a shade of all yellow and black. Only a year later they were again repainted into a dark red with black roofs and chassis. This was modified sortly after with yellow stripes and SBK on the side of the hood. With this scheme, also came a new herald, designed by Benjamin Schaeffer, replacing the original "MTA 2-Tone M". In the late 1990s this was simplified with the removal of the hood lettering and some yellow highlight added, A fresh coat of this as added in Spring 2007. Throughout the years the appearence of these units changed very little, most of the modifications were due to FRA rules. N1 and N2 are used today for moving new and scrap subay cars as well as general NYCTA work being that they no longer have any freight customers. At the past Coney Island Rodeo, your author not only had the chance to view the SBK engines, but to also get a cab ride and a chance to operate them for a short period of time.
