An EMD GP9 is a four-axle diesel-electric locomotive built by General Motors' Electro-Motive Division in the United States, and General Motors Diesel in Canada between January, 1954, and August, 1963. US production ended in December, 1959, while an additional thirteen units were built in Canada, including the last two in August, 1963. Power was provided by an EMD 567C sixteen-cylinder engine which generated 1,750 horsepower (1.30 MW). This locomotive type was offered both with and without control cabs; locomotives built without control cabs were called GP9B locomotives. All GP9B locomotives were built in the United States between February, 1954, and December, 1959.

@FasterThanLight 🗿
@RailfanEthan I just realized that my AWW SD9 was my second SD9 replica after I derped up this GP9.
@RailfanEthan Derp...
I probably had a brain fart when making it...
I just noticed now - the GP9 has 4 axles, this has 6. So technically it's a SD9.. lol
@FasterThanLight I know its a bit of a challenge but im sure ill be the best out of your awesome locomotives
@PLANS I'll build it after the GE 44 Tonner, and can I just say that is a MASSIVE Locomotive!
Please do the DDA40X union pacific
I'll get started on the GE 44 Tonner tomorrow. @RailfanEthan.
@RailfanEthan Hope you Enjoy!
