Built 1985-1994, most still in
service Primary Assignment: Fast intermodal and
light, priority freight; later used in general
freight service as well as local and yard work.
As computer technology advanced in the 1980s, EMD
took a major step forward with the introduction of
the new GP60. Directly behind the cab, a trio of
onboard microprocessors regulated and ran various
onboard systems, replacing complex wiring circuits
and relays. Coaxing 3,800 horsepower from its
16-cylinder 710G3A prime mover, the four-axle GP60
was well suited for fast freight service and was
often seen on the point of priority trains when
new. While the GP60 proved the advantages of
computer control, potential buyers were more
interested in six-axle power, and EMD focused its
development efforts on the bigger units. For now,
the GP60 may be the last in a long line of
geeps.
