It has an EMD 645E3 16-cylinder engine generating 3,000\u00a0hp (2,240\u00a0kW).       (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({});after-content-x4The GP40 is 3 feet (0.914\u00a0m) longer than its EMD 567D3A-engined predecessor, the GP35, and distinguished visually by its three 48-inch radiator fans at the rear of the long hood, while the GP35 has two large fans and a smaller one in between. It was built on a 55\u00a0ft (16.76\u00a0m) frame; the GP35 was built on a 52\u00a0ft (15.85\u00a0m) frame – as was the GP7, 9, 18, and 30. The difference in length can be seen in the GP40’s ten handrail stanchions compared to the GP35’s nine.1,187 GP40s were built for 28 U.S. railroads; 16 were built for one Canadian carrier, Canadian National; and 18 were built for two Mexican carriers, Ferrocarril Chihuahua al Pac\u00edfico and Ferrocarriles Nacionales de M\u00e9xico. 60 units were built with high-short-hoods and dual control stands for Norfolk & Western Railway. Two passenger versions, the GP40P and GP40TC, were also built, but on longer frames to accommodate steam generators and HEP equipment.On January 1, 1972, the GP40 was discontinued and replaced by the GP40-2, which has a modular electrical system and a few minor exterior changes.

The frame, trucks, and carbody are refurbished, while the 16-645 engine is replaced with a new 8-710-ECO engine.  The electrical system is replaced with a modern microprocessor-based system.  Horsepower is reduced to 2,150 due to the smaller engine.Original Owners[edit]RailroadQuantityRoad NumbersNotesAtlanta & West Point7726-732Atlantic Coast Line15915-929To Seaboard Coast Line 1500-1514Baltimore & Ohio1613684-3779, 4000-4064Chesapeake & Ohio503780-3794, 4065-40993794 was the last GP40 builtChihuahua Pacifico181000-1007Chicago, Burlington & Quincy40170-189, 620-639Canadian National164002-4017DeQueen & Eastern1D-7Denver, Rio Grande & Western433051-3093Detroit, Toledo & Ironton6400-405Florida East Coast10401-410Georgia Railroad4751-754Illinois Central753000-3074Louisville & Nashville303000-3029Milwaukee Road72153-199, 2047-20712068-2071 were EMD warranty loanersMissouri-Kansas-Texas61170-230Norfolk & Western601329-1388High-noseNational de Mexico108400-8409New York Central1053000-31043036 was the first GP40 builtPenn Central1703105-32743260-3274 were EMD warranty loanersRichmond, Fredericksburg & Potomac7121-127Rock Island77340-396, 4700-4719Financed by Union Pacific (because of the proposed merger)Seaboard Air Line51600-650To Seaboard Coast Line 1515-1565Seaboard Coast Line701566-1635SOO Line4732-735St. Louis-Southwestern (Cotton Belt)87600-7607Texas, Oklahoma, & Eastern3D-12 – D-14Toledo, Peoria & Western11000Ex-EMD warranty loanerWestern Railway of Alabama7701-707Western Maryland53795-3799Western Pacific443501-35443501-3516 built with large Pyle single headlightSee also[edit]References[edit]       (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({});after-content-x4"},{"@context":"http:\/\/schema.org\/","@type":"BreadcrumbList","itemListElement":[{"@type":"ListItem","position":1,"item":{"@id":"https:\/\/wiki.edu.vn\/en\/wiki21\/#breadcrumbitem","name":"Enzyklop\u00e4die"}},{"@type":"ListItem","position":2,"item":{"@id":"https:\/\/wiki.edu.vn\/en\/wiki21\/emd-gp40-wikipedia\/#breadcrumbitem","name":"EMD GP40 – Wikipedia"}}]}]
