Description

GELocos is for locomotive historians, railfans and modelers interested in General Electric steam- or gas-turbine, straight-electric or diesel-electric locomotives. Postings about the history, disposition, development and modelling of GE locomotives, locomotive prime movers, or electrical systems, whether North American or other in their application, are most welcome.

This is an EMD-free zone. However, postings about locomotives constructed by GE, its subsidiaries or licensees (ie. EMC boxcabs, Fairbanks-Morse "Erie-builts"), or relying on GE electricals (ie., all Alco products) will be tolerated and encouraged.

If you plan on joining this group, please make sure either your Yahoo! profile is up to date, or you type something appropriate in the application message window.
