EMD GP38-2s

The GP38 and the GP38-2 were basically the same engine. There was only minor changes that made them easier to maintain. Therefore, I place the GP38-2s as a subset of the GP38s.

Ridin' The Rods	Old wooden rail cars had to use steel rods to keep the wooden beams from sagging and a 'bo could place a plank across them and ride on it. The danger was your board might slip or you might get careless and loose a life or limb under the wheels.
