The EMD SD38-2 was produced from November 1972 through June 1979. Capable of generating 2000 horsepower, the SD38-2 was essentially the same locomotive as the 4-axle GP38-2 while being built on the 6-axle SD40-2 frame. Although officially considered a medium road-switcher, the SD38-2 is frequently identified with its heavy duty in the steel industry. US Steel has operated coal and iron ore mines and steel mills for many decades. One of these facilities, in southwestern Pennsylvania, is known as the Cumberland Mine. This coal mine is actually an isolated operation, requiring transfer of coal from mine to river dock by rail.

You'll receive the road number described though the road number pictured may be different.
