Talk:EMD Model 40

Just a historian's note here, but all GM locomotives built prior to 1941 were built by the Electro-Motive Corporation (EMC). The Electro-Motive Division (EMD) was formed on January 1, 1941 with the merger of the Winton Engine Company with EMC.

#101 Alive and Well
The locomotive in the photo #101, was owned by the Hagerstown Roundhouse Museum and has been bought by the Walkersville Southern Railroad in Walkersville, Maryland (near Frederick). It is maintained in operating condition and is used regularly in Walkersville to pull their heavier trains. The front engine was overhauled last year and it just got a new set of batteries. For more information about the Walkersville Southern, go to WSRR.ORG. It is not used every weekend, so if you want to see it in action, contact the Walkersville Southern to find out when it will be used. Tom Dalton, WSRR Engineer.
