Locomotive Production stats
Posted by Anonymous on Tuesday, December 14, 2004 3:00 PM
Could someone please point me to a site where the latest EMD/GE build statistics are posted? Or at least to where that data can be found...

Thanks!

Thanks Mark---so if we can't get this year's numbers how about historical data? Like 2003? Or whatever's the most recent...I guess what I'd really like to know is whether GE is still shipping more than EMD...

Thanks again!

The best data I know of appears periodically in "Extra 2200 South" magazine. They have been trying to keep a tally of "microprocessor locomotives" and AC traction units in particular. They can provide some recent back issues to get you started, at least! They try to record builder's numbers, which help in making sure you don't miss anything (at least from GE where they are still sequential).

Here's a great site: http://membrane.com/~elmer/rail/product.html

It hasn't been updated in about five years but all the modern locomotives are listed (except the SD70ACe/M-2, and GE's GEVO units).

Thanks for the info everyone! I'll check out x2200S and see what they have.

Thanks again!
