64-year-old EMD G12 locomotive leaving Wellington station with its empty carriage set

[@udithaeranda8208]

This EMD G12 is a model of locomotive that is highly regarded by Sri Lankans. 14 engines of this type were imported to Sri Lanka between 1954 and 1961. Thirteen of those 14 engines are still in good use by the Sri Lanka Railways. Had one engine not been completely destroyed by the 1985 terrorist attack, all 14 engines would still be in use today.

Beautiful coverage 😍

Delicious. In Cuba we have its littler sister, G8, and is our most reliable engine. 68 years old without overhauling and there they are. We have lost many of them in accidents but the living ones are the most loved locos on my country.

Check out the DBR locomotives, they started life as DB similar to your G8 perhaps?

Oh boy, what a wonderful video. Glad to see another EMD G12 in operation. Thanks from Sri Lanka for uploading the video. Locomotive in immaculate condition, maintaining very well.

Glad to see a G12 in service, Indonesia now only have 1 in preservation, if only the other G12s here lasted longer like this one

[@xiaohe72]

There are more than 15 G12s in use in Taiwan The videos in my channel are the G12 that was retired and saved

It runs on a railway. Where it is going is already determined.
