In November 1959,
EMD introduced the first of its second-generation diesels, the turbocharged
GP20. The GP20 is a four-axle road switcher with a turbocharged 567D2
engine, capable of producing 2000 horsepower. Two prominent features of the
original GP20's are dynamic brakes and a low, short hood that tapers away
from the front of the cab. Between November of 1959 and April 1962, EMD
produced 260 of these locomotives, which were originally sold to eight US
railroads. GP20's made their way to many railroads, and several are still
operating today on short lines in the US.
In our second
production of GP20's, Broadway Limited Imports is offering models in eleven
prototypical paint schemes and one unpainted model with the same details as
a CB&Q GP20. We are also building models in five fantasy paint schemes
