Description

The Grand Canyon Railway Diesel Fleet

Today, Grand Canyon Railway is home to a remarkable collection of America’s famed diesel locomotives.

Our primary movers are 3 EMD F-40PH diesel locomotives, acquired in February 2003. General Motors Electro Motive Division built Nos. 237 and 239 in 1977 and No. 295 in 1979. Amtrak used the engines through the late 1990s. These engines have been fully refurbished and modernized, and have been in service with GCR since 2004.

Additionally, Grand Canyon Railway has retained our original diesel locomotives, in service from 1990 – 2009. Engines No. 6773, No. 6793, No. 6776 and B-Units No. 6871 and No. 6860 are all FPA-4, and built by ALCO (American Locomotive Company) in 1959. Currently, only No. 6793 and B-unit No. 6880 have been painted in the GCR silver and gold livery and see limited service on the Williams Flyer to Grand Canyon National Park. No. 6776 was re-painted silver and gold and placed on static display at Grand Canyon Depot in 2016.
