Covers the complete story on the significant roll EMD's original GP(for General Purpose) locomotives played in bringing diesel power to scores of North American railroads. By design, EMD's original GP locomotives were simple and devoid of ornamentation that graced early diesel's. Back in the 40's and 50's, however, railroads saw the importance of owning the bidirectional, accessible, all-purpose Geep. This book captures the GP7s, GP9s, and GP18s hard at work on U.S. and Canadian RR's during the Golden years of Railroading. Over 100 photographs, technical illustrations, and detailed text covering the subtle differences between the various production models that were manufactured from 1949 to late 1963. Written by Paul D. Schneider. Softbound 128 paged edition.
