DUST JACKET INTRODUCTION:
In this lavishly illustrated book, Brian Solomon recounts the heritage of some of the greatest locomotives ever produced by the Electro-Motive Division of General Motors, including its F units, workhorse GPs and SDs, and the high-tech three-phase AC traction machines of today.
In addition to thoroughly explaining the performance capabilities of these legendary locomotives, Solomon also chronicles EMD's history in light of GM's decision to sell the division in 2005. He not only highlights the locomotive maker's glory years-from when it introduced its high-quality diesel offerings in the 1930s to the zenith of its locomotive production in the 1960s-but also its struggle to stay competitive in the locomotive market in the 1980s and 1990s.
EMD Locomotives is the most detailed look at this locomotive manufacturer ever published, with more than 200 stunning photographs that every railfan will enjoy.
