Atlas Gold Series BNSF #871 H3 Swoosh Logo Dash 8-40CW Diesel Locomotive QSI DCC Sound. The GE C40-8 began production in November 1987 as the more powerful successor to the earlier C39-8. This new model would also firmly plant GE as the present-day premier locomotive builder as it provided railroads with the high horsepower and reliability they were seeking with the resurgence of the rail industry occurring at that time (and which continued through the 1990s). The GE C40-8 featured the builder's four-cycle model 16FDL prime mover, which could produce 4,000 horsepower with a continuous tractive effort of 92,750 pounds at 25% adhesion (using GE's ever-reliable 752 traction motor).
The model was also one of the first to be equipped with the new high-adhesion (or HT-C) truck, which helped to improve wheel-to-rail contact. Units built: for BNSF 127 predecessor ATSF. After BN Railroad merged with ATSF Railroad several paint schemes and logos were used before settling on the current inverted BNSF logo, using the former GN (Great Northern) Dark Green, and Orange scheme.
