GE steam turbine locomotives
The General Electric steam turbine locomotives were two steam turbine locomotives built by General Electric (GE) for Union Pacific (UP) in 1938. The two units were streamlined, 90 feet 10 inches (27.69 m) in length, capable of producing 2,500 horsepower (1,900 kW), and reputedly able to attain speeds of 125 miles per hour (201 km/h). Stylistically, they resembled the power units of UP's Pullman-designed M-10003 through M-10006 trainsets and contemporary Electro-Motive Corporation (EMC) diesel designs.
