Title: Question on the rebuilt GP38-2
Post by: Badhorse79 on September 09, 2010, 04:25:58 PM
I was hoping someone could tell me if they have the exhaust stacks and vent on the DB Area still ? I can't find any good roof shots of them! I figured if they had been rebuilt maybe they were removed

Thanks for any help
Eric

The 5500 and 5600 series GP38-2 rebuilds have four sets of exhaust stacks and no vent:

The 5800 series GP38-3 rebuilds have the turbo exhaust hatch removed with a paper air filter box added in its place, with two non-turbo stacks added and no vent:
