Amtrak is usually known for their carbody locomotives, a staple of passenger trains in the US. Amtrak is also, more notoriously, known for their freight locomotives converted into passenger specifications. The GP40TC was one of those, luckily though, it was far more successful than some of its early counterparts. But how exactly has this Canadian locomotive stayed on the rails for over 50 years now? Find out in this episode of Engines of Amtrak!

    Fun thing: My school bus in the morning runs right alongside 150mph NEC tracks (like feet away), and one foggy morning an engine like this (presumably one of these, a switcher/work train engine of some sort) came flying by southbound (coming out of the Providence yard presumably) by itself. Didn't catch a number, has always been fairly mysterious to me.

    Also on 5:53, #650-664 was used on Amtrak's GP40s back in the early 1990s. When they returned to Helm Leasing in the late 1990s, Amtrak reused the same numbering on their HHP-8s until ACS-64s came in 2014, and they were retired.

    Maybe because more HP is not needed, and a turbocharger is another part that can fail easily. In general more HP does not add more power in certain uses. It really depends on other factors aswell. But that is just what came up to my mind.

    Note that while EMD built them, they were NOT built in the US - they were built in the EMD London, Ontario plant. (EMD was not the only part of GM that had a plant in London - there were two other GM plants there - one being a twin of the most famous GM auto plant that did NOT build Corvettes - Lordstown, Ohio - which built Camaros and Firebirds - including Trans-Ams. The other was for GM Truck and Coach - also known as GMC - in the Coach case, I am referring to buses - transit buses in particular. Like EMD, a surprising amount of GM Canada's Coach product found itself in the US - among the customers were New York City's MTA, SEPTA, and first DC Transit, and later successor WMATA. However, not even the surprisingly-successful transit bus business saved GM Coach - in either the US or Canada; basically the same thing that happened to EMD - the businesses were spun out and sold.) I know about the transit buses because I rode some of them in WMATA and ex-DC Transit (acquired by WMATA) in 1976 and 1977 - in the tailchase of their careers with the transit authority. Built in Canada, but inspected at the then-home of Team Suburban - Baltimore, Maryland. (In addition to being the assembly line for all Suburbans, the heavy-duty C/K pickups - in both Chevrolet and GMC branding - for the eastern US were built in Baltimore until the tailchase of the Clinton administration. However, the success of the Suburban did not save GM Baltimore from the bean-counters. (We ALL know *why* the Suburban was successful - in both Chevrolet AND GMC branding it could carry large loads, tow large loads, or both. It wasn't JUST the Secret Service that purchased and/or leased the beasts of burden - so did military installations and law enforcement; an even dozen wound up in the Maryland State Police.)
