One of the most common replacement locomotives became the GP40-2. EMD began production of the 16-cylinder, turbocharged, 3000 horsepower engines in 1972. These locomotives were developed for service where higher horsepower and faster service were preferable. A major feature for the GP40-2 was the introduction of the \"dash 2\" modular electrical cabinet. For more than 40 years, the GP40-2 has worked main line freights, locals, switching jobs, yard service, and helper service. Many remain in service today. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e ONT FEATURES:\u003cbr\u003e Ex-B\u0026amp;M\u003cbr\u003e Corrugated grilles\u003cbr\u003e Non-dynamic hatch\u003cbr\u003e Front and rear ditch lights\u003cbr\u003e Side-mounted hood bell\u003cbr\u003e M3 horn on long hood\u003cbr\u003e Blomberg M trucks\u003cbr\u003e Large fuel tank\u003cbr\u003e Large front anticlimber\u003cbr\u003e Small EMD front plow\u003cbr\u003e Lit number boards and class lights if equipped (effect in DCC) \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e The Ontario Northland Railway is operated by the Ontario Northland Transportation Commission, part of the government of Ontario, Canada.
