QUOTE: Originally posted by CSSHEGEWISCH It's all very confusing until you actually see them. The GP15D & GP20D are EMD locomotives in name only, being built by MPI and marketed by EMD. Ed is right, the new model designations are probably only to conform with prior EMD usage. It would be interesting to see what kind of designation EMD would use for the MP2000C, the six-axle switcher that Ed enjoyed so much: SD38D perhaps[:-^] GE is equally guilty of recycling model designations, especially when it comes to various U-series export designs.

And MP-15s look a lot like regular SW-1500s Yep, those Contemporary Spotters Guides aren't so contemporary any more... The new GP15D is different from the GP15-1, and the MPI MP15D (descendant of the MK1200G) is different from the EMD MP15/MP15DC/MP15AC!!! Confused yet??? [%-)] -Mark www.fuzzyworld3.com
