The EMD GP39 is a 4-axle diesel-electric locomotive built by General Motors Electro-Motive Division between June 1969 and July 1970. The locomotive's power was provided by a turbocharged EMD 645E3 12-cylinder engine which generated 2,300 hp (1.72 MW)[1][2]
23 examples of this locomotive model were built for American railroads.[3]
Burlington Northern Railway later rebuilt GP30, GP35, and GP40 locomotives that it classified as GP39s, but they were not built as such by GM/EMD. Twenty of the original 23 were built for the Chesapeake & Ohio, while the other buyers were Kennecott Copper (2) and Atlanta & St. Andrews Bay (1).
