The EMD GP22ECO is a 2150 hp (1600 kW) B-B diesel-electric locomotive rebuilt by Electro-Motive Diesel. Initially EMD built two GP22ECO demonstrators one based on a GP9 and one based on a GP40 but thus far all orders have been for conversions based on EMD GP40 and EMD GP40-2 series locomotives. The rebuild involves replacing the existing prime mover with an EPA Tier-II-compliant turbocharged V8 710G3A with Electronic fuel injection.
