SD60 vs SD50

[train1]

Can someone tell me if the Atlas sd50 is shorter in length than an Atlas sd60 - with the shells removed ? I need to know if there is a difference in measurement from the end of the front truck to end of rear truck.

I do not have an sd50 in my consist to make the comparison and I'm working on a project that involves a Sd50 motor unit.
Thanks

To my understanding the only external difference between the SD50 and SD60 are the number of doors beneath the radiator grills. They use the same chassis and trucks.

But is the length different ? Without the shells ?

NO, they share the same chassis (frame).
