Under this alternate timeline, DRGW ordered EMD’s GP15T to replace the aging geeps and increase the efficiency of these assignments- the turbocharged units being better suited to the Grande’s mountainous territory.

Intended to provide an alternative to the rebuilding programs that many railroads were applying to their early road switchers, it is generally employed as a yard switcher or light road switcher. A total of 310 units were built for American railroads. A number of GP15-1s remain in service today for yard work and light road duty.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eEMD built 28 examples of a variant, the GP15T, between October 1982 and April 1983. It was a very close cousin to the GP15-1, but used a turbocharger in order to generate more power from a smaller engine.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2 class=\"secTog shadow\" id=\"prodHdr_specs\"\u003e\u003cspan class=\"text\"\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"secTog\"\u003e\n\u003ctable class=\"specs\" width=\"99%\" cellspacing=\"0\" cellpadding=\"0\" border=\"0\"\u003e\n\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd class=\"specName\"\u003e\u003cspan class=\"sttl\"\u003eDCC:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd class=\"specVal\"\u003eEquipped\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd class=\"specName\"\u003e\u003cspan class=\"sttl\"\u003eSOUND:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd class=\"specVal\"\u003eTsunami2\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd class=\"specName\"\u003e\u003cspan class=\"sttl\"\u003ePROTOTYPE MANUFACTURER:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd class=\"specVal\"\u003eEMD\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd class=\"specName\"\u003e\u003cspan class=\"sttl\"\u003eAxles:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd class=\"specVal\"\u003e4\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd class=\"specName\"\u003e\u003cspan class=\"sttl\"\u003eLIGHTED:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd class=\"specVal\"\u003eLED Lighting\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd class=\"specName\"\u003e\u003cspan class=\"sttl\"\u003eMinimum Age Recommendation:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd class=\"specVal\"\u003e14 years\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd class=\"specName\"\u003e\u003cspan class=\"sttl\"\u003eIs Assembly Required:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd class=\"specVal\"\u003eNo\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Athearn","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":43021351813183,"sku":"ATH-G13346","price":319.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0269\/7461\/7663\/files\/ATHG13346_A0_QCGI0ZS4_a4e7c30f-5298-4779-80e0-04d183344aa2.jpg?v=1773847865","url":"https:\/\/factorydirecthobbies.com\/products\/in-stock-athearn-genesis-athg13346-ho-gp15t-w-dcc-sound-rio-grande-5970","provider":"Factory Direct Hobbies","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
