Does anyone have any information on which companies will purchase the ne Blue Tiger from GE? Heres a website all about the locomotive though!!https://www.getransportation.com/general/apps/freight_rail/models/bluetiger.asp
Only carrier that I’m aware of is Pakistan Railways. There is also a demonstrator floating around. The Blue Tiger is an export design DE33AC.
MAN . THAT . THING . IS . UGLY . [:0] [B)] [8]
Definately something from GE.
I’ll agree that it’s ugly but just about anything that’s designed for export isn’t going to look too good because of weight and clearance restrictions that are inherent in the design. Also leaning toward ugly is the GT46MAC on Indian Railways which is an EMD product.
Better looking designs include the DL500C (ALCO’s World Locomotive), the G12 (an EMD light road-switcher) and the R615E (Baldwin’s answer to the World Locomotive).
