A Diesel for Every Post-1970s Layout
The Dash 2 locomotive series, unveiled by EMD in 1972, featured
significant changes, such as a solid-state, modular electrical
control system and improved engine components designed to increase
traction and reduce exhaust emissions. A reliable workhorse, the
GP38-2 remains one of the most successful diesels ever built. Most
are still in service today.
