(1.3) EMD GP38-2 Diesel Electric Locomotive (Non Dynamic Brake) (P&W) 2005

Description
The famous GP38-2 is back on the workshop, and better than ever. Built by Electro-Motive Division, and built like Sherman tanks.

GP = General Purpose
38 = Series Number
-2 = Dash 2 Electrics


The GP38 was a very popular sales score by EMD in 1972, it kept in production with orders sky high until 1986, when the series discontinued. The number of produced units totaled at 2,213.

This is technically a gp39-2 (rebuilt from a gp35) But i was going to make a standard g&w unit and what unit did g&w had the most of? Geeps. Lots and lots of geeps. So i made a gp38 reskin
