While many CN GP40-2Ls have been sold to other railroads, others have remained on the roster long enough to be repainted into more modern schemes. CN 9468 & 9551 represent GP40-2Ls that were repainted into the short-lived North America map scheme. CN 9544 & 9591 represent locomotives that received the modern CN web address logo. All four engines are unique in real life, and we have researched every detail to accurately reproduce them in our Genesis line.
Created in 1967, The Government of Ontario Transit system, known today as GO Transit, has served the southern region of Ontario, Canada, with a variety of passenger equipment. To supplement the 8 GP40TC locomotives purchased in 1966, GO Transit purchased 11 GP40-2W locomotives from GMDD in 1973 & 1975. The engines feature distinctive logo plates on the front and sides, as well as head-end power connections front and rear. The prototypes for our model are modernized units that were operating in the 1980’s, equipped with ditch lights and having relocated horns. These engines are a perfect match for our Bombardier Bi-Level commuter cars in the original GO Transit paint scheme. Since they were not equipped to supply head-end power, they were often run with converted F7 A & B units, which were rebuilt to act as HEP cars.
The Iowa Northern Railway (IANR) was incorporated in 1984, and operates 163 miles of track. Recently, they acquired several second-hand GP40-2L units from CN. These locomotives were repainted into IANR’s current scheme, which resembles the original Canadian Pacific maroon & grey scheme. With trackage rights over portions of both UP & CP, these locomotives are common sights in interchange service throughout the northern Iowa area.
Repainted from their former Guilford colors, Pan Am Railways operates several GP40-2L locomotives in the dark blue scheme. Carrying Maine Central reporting marks, they can be found operating throughout the northeast.
The EMD GP40-2 is a 4-axle diesel road switcher locomotive built by General Motors Electro-Motive Division as part of its Dash 2 line between April 1972 and December 1986. The locomotive’s power was provided by an EMD 645E3 16-cylinder engine which generated 3,000 horsepower.
Standard GP40-2 production totalled 861 units, with 817 built for U.S. railroads, and 44 for Mexican roads. In addition, three GP40P-2s, passenger versions of the GP40-2, were built for Southern Pacific in 1974, and 279 GP40-2L(W) and GP40-2(W) units, equipped with wide-nosed cabs, were built by General Motors Diesel (GMD), for Canadian National and GO Transit between 1974 and 1976. Of the CN units, 233 were built with a taller and lighter frame to allow for a larger fuel tank. These units were officially classified GP40-2L but are commonly referred to as GP40-2L(W). The balance of CN’s fleet, 35 units, and the 11 unit GO Transit fleet, used standard frames and smaller fuel tanks; they are often referred to as GP40-2(W) but are classified as GP40-2.
Like the SD40-2 the GP40-2 has a reputation for reliability, and many are still in use. Changes such as the modular electronics system improved reliability over the GP40. Their high power-per-axle rating suited them to high-speed service rather than low-speed drag freig
