This GE UP GTEL took me about 2 weeks to make, the engine had problems, but it works fine now. Instructions are to the right. If you want me to make more locomotives leave a like or suggestions. (Note: Converted to diesel burning)

    @oldmud0 A gas turbine isn't necessarily a jet engine. But you can find them on a select few units, including the M-497 and SVL/ER22.

    Wow I didn't know jet engines were retrofitted to trains back then.

    I'd like to see the third generation one, unless this is it...

    Reply to theoowderscientist: This was once a locomotive used by the Union Pacific railroad back in the 50s-60s, and it was made by ALCO (American Locomotive Company) and GE (General Electric), but it was put out of service due to the fact that it guzzled fuel, and it was very loud.

    Reply to RagingHammer: Truthfully I tink my locomotive tops all other locomotives, due to the fact of it being the first GTEL on TPT.

    Reply to Brickrail782: Actually these locomotives run on a very viscous (thick) fuel, more thicker than diesel, but I think it may be able to with LNG.
