The Electro-Motive Division of General Motors produced the E-8 locomotive in the 1950's for use on passenger trains. The E-8 and the nearly identical E-9 proved to be extremely popular among American railroads. Some found their way into freight services in the late 1960's, and eventually regional commuter services well into the 1980's and 1990's. Today, most remaining E-8's and E-9's can be found in railroad museums, however a few have found refuge on tourist railroads, excursion services, and even as executive locomotives for large railways.
