History
The E8 is a 2,250-horsepower (1,678 kW), A1A-A1A passenger-train locomotive built by General Motors’ Electro-Motive Division (EMD) of La Grange, Illinois. A total of 450 cab versions, or E8As, were built from August 1949 to January 1954, 447 for the U.S. and 3 for Canada. 46 E8Bs were built from December 1949 to January 1954, all for the U.S. The 2,250 hp came from two 12-cylinder model 567B engines, each driving a generator to power the two traction motors on one truck. The E8 was the ninth model in the line of passenger diesels of similar design, known as EMD E-units. Starting in September 1953, a total of 21 E8As were built, which used either the 567BC or 567C engines.
