The most common replacement locomotive became the GP38-2. EMD began production of the 16-cylinder, non-turbocharged, 2000 horsepower engine in 1972. Unlike the GP38’s engine, which drove a generator to supply power to the traction motors, the GP38-2s prime mover drove an alternator which produced AC electrical current that was rectified to DC to power the four traction motors. Another major change for the GP38- 2 was the introduction of the “dash 2” modular electrical cabinet. For more than 40 years, the GP38-2 has worked main line freights, locals, switching jobs, yard service, helpers, snow fighting trains, and hump power. Many remain in service today.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"text-align: center;\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 14pt;\"\u003e\u003cstrong style=\"color: #ff0000;\"\u003e\u003cem\u003eLombard Hobbies - Big Inventory ∙\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: #ff0000;\"\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cstrong style=\"color: #ff0000;\"\u003e\u003cem\u003eValue \u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cstrong style=\"color: #ff0000;\"\u003e\u003cem\u003ePricing ∙ Fast Shipping ∙ Great Service\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Athearn HO","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48931322527897,"sku":"ATHG-1390","price":225.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0685\/8847\/0425\/files\/ATHG-1390_A0_KE8P7M76.jpg?v=1787592197","url":"https:\/\/lombardhobby.com\/products\/athearn-genesis-ho-athg-1390-dcc-ready-emd-gp38-2-locomotive-primed-for-grime-csx-ex-sbd-csxt-2623-copy","provider":"Lombard Hobbies","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
