Why are GE locomotives better than EMD?

That is a very good possibility on the wining and dining. I have certainly seen it work on my job. I definitely agree that both companies have produced models that will not make the 10 best list, and EMD will, in time, at least make four cycle engines, as by the year 2010, they will not be able to meet the EPA emission standards that will be in effect for locomotives by then. That sound that you hear is from the railroads that would be having a fit if only one locomotive manufacturer was all they had to purchase from! It might be sort of neat, though. If you have never heard an SD-90MAC-H running at speed, they sound like an Alco 244 series engine. Just think of the clanging and banging we would hear at trackside. Have a good one!
