Here is an unbelievable chapter on Union Pacific's Giant Centennial Locomotives!
The EMD Centennial DDA40X is a 6,600 HP 4 Axle D-D locomotive, built by EMD from 1969 to 1971 exclusively for the Union Pacific Railroad. At 98 Feet Length and 207 tons weight, it is the most powerful diesel-electric locomotive model ever built on a single frame, having two 16-645E3A diesel prime movers. Look back with us to a grand era, when UP was running some of the largest locomotives on earth, often in multiple sets.
UP's DDA40X locomotives were the culmination of the company's experiments testing extremely powerful locomotives, this began with the gas turbine-electric locomotives and Cabless DD35s. For manufacturer EMD, the construction of the world's most powerful single frame locomotive was a sign of the company's dominance of the North American diesel locomotive market, with only GE Transportation an equal competitor!
