Detailed Information
CSX FEATURES:
All Ex-Reading. Electrical cabinet door on engineers side
YN2 repaints feature: Removed nose class lights, K5 horn, front ditch lights, EMD small plow, cab rain gutters, and our most current approved CSX colors.
CSX patched units feature: Removed nose class lights, correct horn and patching per road number, EMD small plow, and cab rain gutters.
In the early 1990s, CSX acquired ex-Reading GP39-2s for system-wide service. These locomotives were perfect for local and switching duties. A few of them were merely patched with CSX lettering and renumbered before eventually being repainted into CSXs -YN2- scheme. They are still being used today with most being repainted into CSXs latest scheme.

PROTOTYPE SPECIFIC INFORMATION
In the decade between 1974 and 1984, EMD produced the GP39-2 for seven North American railroads. The basic design followed most four axle road diesel switchers for the time. Borrowing improvements from the GP38-2 and GP40-2 designs, this mid-horsepower road switcher utilized a turbocharged 12-cylinder EMD 645E3 diesel engine for its prime mover. With 4 fewer cylinders, the smaller engine provided a distinctive long hood on the phase II and phase III bodies, where the clean room/engine compartment doors were set back from the cab further than predecessor locomotives.
Sensitivity to fuel economy in the 1970s justified the GP39-2 in the locomotive market. It also laid the ground work for EMD to start exploring locomotive designs that utilize engines with larger piston displacement yet possess fewer cylinders. This approach has become the foundation to modern locomotive technology.
