Dash-8 - http://www.railpictures.net/viewphoto.php?id=81317 Dash-9 - http://www.railpictures.net/viewphoto.php?id=79513 AC4400CW - http://www.railpictures.net/viewphoto.php?id=81083 AC4400CW (w/radial trucks) - http://www.railpictures.net/viewphoto.php?id=81338 All Dash-8's use the Dash-8 truck. If you'll notice in the photo they look somewhat similar to the HTC truck found on SD40-2's or SD60's. Also, the radiator "wings" found on Dash-8's are skinnier than those on Dash-9's (although later Dash-8's have thicker "wings"). The Dash-9 and AC4400CW units look very similar except AC4400CW's have a bank of AC inverters on the left side. Although both do use the Hi-Ad truck, the AC4400CW (along with the AC6000CW) also uses GE's radial-steering truck. That's about all there is. M636C had some good points. It's a whole different ball game when you start getting into different phases, door arrangements, and intake placement/arrangements. Lastly, here is a site that appears to be accurate: http://www.finnmoller.dk/rail-usa/loco-guide/
