Scott Flynn General I didn't even know these exsisted. They look like an E-44 and a GP30 smashed together-Neat catch 6/13/2005 9:47:20 PM
Bodhi Sidharta General if this is an electric loco, i wonder what's in her long hood? thousand of fuses? 6/28/2005 2:07:27 AM
Eric Kreszl General These were demonstrators that were to be used on the Northeast Corridor to replace the GE E33's and E44's which never happened since Conrail discontinued Electric Operations. 6/1/2006 4:47:46 PM
Ron Moraca General What an ugly beast this GM6C was! I never knew such a monstrosity existed, let alone that EMD built it! It looks like a combo E44/GP30 on steroids! 12/13/2008 10:25:15 PM
David Stewart General Awesome, very nice shot! 4/27/2009 3:46:00 PM
gordon vincent General Amtrak wanted to run freight off the corridor,so they jacked the power fees,so CR started using diesels from then on.They had dual controls,regular EMD AAR control stands,just like an SD40-2.If EMD had anything to do with anything,it was the best,PERIOD!. 5/15/2011 8:30:43 PM
