The EMD F40PH is a four-axle 3,000–3,200 hp (2.2–2.4 MW) B-B diesel-electric locomotive built by General Motors Electro-Motive Division in several variants from 1975 to 1992. Intended for use on Amtrak 's short-haul passenger routes, it became the backbone of Amtrak's diesel fleet after the failure of the EMD SDP40F .

2023年2月1日 · Amtrak F40PH locomotives are considered the standard passenger motive power for the 1980s and early 1990s. The four-axle, 3,000-hp units are mechanically identical to the much more common GP40-2 freight locomotive, which also use the 16-645E prime mover.

The EMD F40PH, a four-axle passenger locomotive with a power output of 3,000 to 3,200 hp, was developed by General Motors' Electro-Motive Division. This model's inception dates back to May 8, 1975, when Amtrak placed an order for the first 30 F40PH units following the unsuccessful deployment of the larger EMD SDP40F locomotives.

2010年4月7日 · The Electromotive Divison F40PH is a 4 axle, 3,000 HP diesel electric locomotive first built by EMD in 1976, with varients of the model being produced until 1991. A standard F40PH rides on the same frame as a GP40-2 and uses the same 3,000 HP 16 cylinder 645 prime mover, and is essentially a cowled version of the GP40-2.

The EMD F40PH is a full cowl-bodied, 3,000 hp to 3,200 hp four-axle diesel-electric locomotive, which was originally built by Electro-Motive Division between 1975 to 1992 and was then built by Morrison-Knudsen Rail and then MPI (Motive Power Inc) in the 1990s and early 2000s.

It's a rebuild, because that F40 configuration can't be "reused" as in picking up and dropping the entire power plant into say, a typical freight GP40, without back-dating to what the SDP40Fs had. Re-use would've been something like what MPI did for GP40s: the prime mover power plant remained unchanged, and a separate HEP generator was ...

of getting the first two F40's hooked up and BACK TO BACK, and being in a position to capture them broadside in motion? A little tighter view for the rivet counters. The "Fast Mail" at Mystic back in it's hey-day, when Amtrak had to "borrow" some Baggage cars from VIA.
