Rock Islands 1300-series GP18s came from EMD in 1960 (1333-1343) and 1961 (1344-1353). The units joined GP7 and GP9 examples on the roads roster, in addition to many more uncommon early diesels that served Rock Island. From main line power used across the 14-state system in their early years to local power, the GP18s saw much use and many miles on the fabled Rock Island.
