UP DD40X Reskin V2 (Wings)

GM-EMD DD40X

When diesel traction took over from steam, Union Pacific required lash-ups of several units to equal
the power of a single 4-8-8-4 type steam locomotive; and it's management made consistent efforts to find a more simple solution by increasing the power of single units.

UP experimented succesfully with gas-turbine power for some years, but as diesel engine technology developed, it concluded that there were distinct advantages to buying standard equipment from locomotive suppliers.

In the late 1960's UP decided to celebrate a centenary of continuous operation by ordering the largest and most powerful single unit locomotives in the world. Constructed almost entirely from standard General Motors parts, the DD40X or 'Centennial' combined 2 x 16 cylinder prime movers on one chassis.

As modern powered railroad operations evolved in the US, standard practise on most sytems became to calculate the required horsepower per ton to move a train over a given route, and issue a suitable number of conveniently rated units to form the motive power. Large, indivisible units such as the behemoth DD40X were less than suitable for these practises, and were eventually made redundant by less striking examples of locomotive technology.

Model: DD40X
Horsepower: 6600
Engine: 2 645E3 (16cyl 2-stroke)
