The GE Genesis (officially trademarked GENESIS [5]) is a series of passenger diesel locomotives built by GE Transportation for Amtrak, Metro-North, and Via Rail between 1992 and 2001. A total of 321 units were produced. Designed to meet Amtrak's specifications, the Genesis series is 14 feet 4 inches (4.37 m) tall.
GE intended that the E60Cs work in multiple, three per train, to handle this load. [4] The BM&LP ordered a total of six locomotives between 1972–1976, allowing it to operate two trains at once. [ 11 ] [ 12 ] The BM&LP acquired six former Ferrocarriles Nacionales de México E60C-2s after the latter discontinued electric operations in the late ...
An important class of three-phase load is the electric motor. A three-phase induction motor has a simple design, inherently high starting torque and high efficiency. Such motors are applied in industry for many applications. A three-phase motor is more compact and less costly than a single-phase motor of the same voltage class and rating, and ...

The Evolution Series is a line of diesel locomotives built by GE Transportation Systems (now owned by Wabtec), initially designed to meet the U.S. EPA's Tier 2 locomotive emissions standards that took effect in 2005.
The U25B was announced by General Electric as a domestic model on April 26, 1960. It was the first locomotive powered by GE's highly successful FDL-16 engine. The U-Boat put GE on the road to becoming the top locomotive producer in the U.S., much to the chagrin of EMD. It introduced many innovations to the U.S. diesel locomotive market ...
In a three-phase system, at least two transducers are required to measure power when there is no neutral, or three transducers when there is a neutral. [5] Blondel's theorem states that the number of measurement elements required is one less than the number of current-carrying conductors.
The GE Universal Series is a series of diesel locomotives intended for the export market introduced by General Electric in early 1956. General Electric had previously partnered with Alco , producing locomotives for export using Alco's 244 engine , and provided electrical parts for Alco's domestic production.
