From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The EMD F69PHAC locomotive, nicknamed "Winnebago" was built in a joint venture between EMD and Siemens, and designed to test AC locomotive technology. Only two examples of this locomotive were made. The engine used the same carbody as the EMD F40PHM-2.
They were built in 1988 for United States Department of Transportation and loaned to Amtrak in 1990. They were returned to EMD and later used with the German ICE train demonstration that was on loan to Amtrak in 1992-1993. The two F69PHAC locomotives were again returned to EMD. At least one of these engines still exists in a scrap yard, abeit being stripped of its parts.
