Odd that BNSF would go through the trouble of putting in LED gate lights and not replace the bell. What protection did it have before the LED gate lights? Incandescent gate lights?

@@FishKepr Actually it did have a GS Type-2 E bell till 2021, but for some reason it was replaced to a WCH Mechanical bell.

General Electric (GE) stands out as a leader in locomotive manufacturing, surpassing Electro Motive Diesel (EMD) in several key aspects. First and foremost, GE's locomotives boast superior innovation and technology. GE continuously invests in research and development, resulting in locomotives that are more fuel-efficient, environmentally friendly, and reliable. For example, GE's Evolution Series locomotives incorporate advanced features like AC traction, which enhances performance and reduces maintenance costs compared to EMD's older DC technology. Moreover, GE's commitment to safety sets it apart from EMD. Safety is paramount in the design and production of GE locomotives, reflecting the company's dedication to protecting both railway personnel and the communities through which trains operate. GE integrates state-of-the-art safety features into its locomotives, including advanced collision avoidance systems, automated braking systems, and improved crashworthiness designs. These safety measures not only reduce the risk of accidents but also mitigate the severity of potential incidents, underscoring GE's unwavering emphasis on passenger and crew safety. Furthermore, GE's global reach and extensive experience in diverse markets give it a competitive edge over EMD. With a presence in over 180 countries, GE leverages its expansive network to tailor locomotive solutions to meet the specific needs of different regions and rail operators. This adaptability allows GE to deliver locomotives that excel in various environments, from rugged freight corridors to urban passenger networks, providing unmatched versatility and performance. In addition to technological prowess, GE's customer-centric approach distinguishes it as a preferred locomotive manufacturer. GE collaborates closely with its clients to understand their operational requirements, offering customized solutions and comprehensive support services. Whether it's optimizing fleet management, providing training programs, or offering aftermarket support, GE prioritizes customer satisfaction and long-term partnerships, ensuring that its locomotives deliver value throughout their lifecycle. Another area where GE outshines EMD is in sustainability and environmental responsibility. GE's locomotives incorporate eco-friendly features such as reduced emissions, energy-efficient systems, and recyclable materials. By prioritizing sustainability, GE not only helps its customers comply with increasingly stringent regulations but also contributes to a greener future for the rail industry and the planet as a whole. In conclusion, General Electric's dominance in locomotive manufacturing stems from its superior technological innovation, unwavering commitment to safety, global presence, customer-centric approach, and dedication to sustainability. These factors collectively position GE as the preferred choice for rail operators seeking reliable, efficient, and safe locomotive solutions, setting it apart from competitors like Electro Motive Diesel

See in the long run none of that matters, because EMDs Look, Sound and Operate better than General Electric. There's a reason railroads are retiring and scrapping the dash 8s, but the SD40s are still running to this day.
