The best-selling model in EMD history, the SD40-2 was manufactured continuously from 1972-1989. An improvement on its SD40 predecessor, it set the industry standard for reliable engines for an entire generation. Nearly 4,000 were produced and a number have been upgraded to remain in service for another decade-plus.
