PROTOTYPE SPECIFIC INFORMATION
The SD40-2 was introduced in January 1972 as part of EMD’s Dash 2
series, responding to competing products from GE and ALCO. Reliability
and versatility of the 3,000-horsepower SD40-2 made it the best-selling
model in EMD’s history and the standard of the industry for several
decades after its introduction. The SD40-2 was an improvement over
the SD40, with modular electronic control systems similar to those of
the experimental SD45X and DDA40X. The last SD40-2 delivered to a
United States railroad was built in July 1984, with production continuing for
railroads in Canada until 1988.
