New Model!

|
| The 4,000hp Dash 8-40CW was produced by General
Electric between 1989 and 1993 as a follow-up to the successful Dash 8-40C
locomotive. The most distinguishing feature of this model was the introduction
of GE’s version of the wide-nose “North American Safety Cab.”
This style of cab would become a common sight on railroads across the
country. Four major railroads purchased the Dash 8-40CW in fairly large
quantities, including Conrail, CSX, Santa Fe and Union Pacific. Most of
these units are still in regular mainline and heavy-haul freight service
today. Due to various mergers, they can also be seen operating for new
owners Norfolk Southern and BNSF. |
