EMD GP-38-2: Locomotive Roster
Conrail Cyclopedia Quality!

CR GP-38-2 OLI The GP-38-2 was one of the most reliable and versatile locomotive on the Conrail system. They were found switching freight in yards, leading trains up secondaries, or working in-line with higher horsepower locomotives on mainline freights. In 1976 Conrail inherited 223 units from the Penn Central and bought another 119 units between 1977 and 1979.

Comprehensive Roster
The roster below is comprehensive for these units between April 1976 and May 1999, and contains all predecessor units of the locomotive class that Conrail inherited as well as those Conrail purchased. If numbers are missing from the roster, Conrail intentionally left them open. It does not contain retirement dates and dispositions due to their complex nature. All of the units were retired prior to June 1999.
