Proto 2000 30789 HO D&H GP38-2 Diesel Engine #7312 LN/Box
Here is a Proto 2000 30789 D&H GP38-2 Diesel Engine #7312.
Early-production GP38-2s constructed before 1977 came equipped with an 81" long nose; this model is based on these units. Fuel tank size was specified by the customer and units came equipped with Blomberg M truck, although many were built with older Blomberg trucks from traded-in units. The GP38-2 could be found in all kinds of service from hauling road freights and wayfreights to ushering commuter (on the Long Island Railroad) and long-distance (Mexican steam generator-equipped models) passenger trains across the railroad. Hundreds could also be found in local, yard and heavy industrial switching. In recent years, they fetch a pretty penny on the used locomotive market - if their original Class I owners ever get rid of them. The model was so successful that even in 2006 some Class I roads were still purchasing remanufactured/rebuilt units built to GP38-2 standards. Many have been rebuilt and still serve for their original owners, others have gone on to shortlines and regional roads.
