Talk:EMD GP18

Rock Island 1329 2nd
This particular Geep has two serial numbers as it was wrecked and rebuilt early in its time on the Rock Island. The first 1329 was a GP9 built by EMD as serial #25219 on order 5599 in April 1959. That unit is documented on the GP9 page. The second 1329 was a Geep? rebuilt by EMD as serial #26348 on repair order 8069 in November 1960. The second 1329 is described as having 1750 horsepower, some sites carry it as a GP9 and some as a GP18. The Extra 2200 South roster in the shows 1329 2nd as a GP9 built in November 1960 which is a year past what is considered the end of EMD GP9 production. --SSW9389 (talk) 12:28, 6 August 2021 (UTC)
