The E8 is a 2,250-horsepower (1,678 kW), A1A-A1A passenger-train locomotive built by General Motors' Electro-Motive Division (EMD) of La Grange, Illinois. A total of 450 cab versions, or E8As, were built from August 1949 to January 1954, 447 for the U.S. and 3 for Canada. 46 E8Bs were built from December 1949 to January 1954, all for the U.S. The 2,250 hp came from two 12 cylinder model 567B engines, each driving a generator to power the two traction motors on one truck. The E8 was the ninth model in the line of passenger diesels of similar design known as EMD E-units. Starting in September 1953, a total of 21 E8As were built which used either the 567BC or 567C engines. In profile the front of the nose of E7, E8, and E9 units is less slanted than earlier EMD units, and E7/8/9s (and their four axle cousins, the F-unit series) have been nicknamed "bulldog nose" units. Earlier E-unit locomotives were nicknamed "slant nose" units. After passenger trains were canceled on the Erie Lackawanna in 1970 (excluding their commuter service, which the Metropolitan Transportation Authority subsidized in 1973), the E8s were re-geared for freight and were very reliable for the EL. These units were on freight trains until the early years of Consolidated Railroad Corporation ("Conrail"). Amtrak used E8s until the late 70s. Units noted with the designation E8m were rebuilt using components from earlier EMC/EMD locomotives. Externally the units look just like E8s. The difference in horsepower produced in these E8m units is because the older generators are reused. (en) Les E8 sont une série de locomotives type A1A-A1A pour trains de voyageurs de 2 250 chevaux (1,678 kW), construite par Electro-Motive Division (EMD) à La Grange, Illinois. 450 machines , ou E8A, ont été construites de août 1949 à janvier 1954, 447 pour les États-Unis et 3 pour le Canada. 46 unités E8B (sans cabine) ont été construites de décembre 1949 à janvier 1954, toutes pour les États-Unis. Les 2 250 chevaux sont fournis par deux moteurs 567B à 12 cylindres, chacun actionnant un générateur pour alimenter les présents sur chaque bogie. Le E8 est le neuvième modèle de la série des unités E, locomotives diesel pour trains de voyageurs. À partir de septembre 1953, 21 E8A ont été construits avec des moteurs 567BC or 567C. Concernant le profil, l'avant du nez des E7, E8 et E9 unités est moins incliné que sur les précédentes unités EMD, et les E7, E8 et E0 (et leurs cousins à quatre essieux, les unités F) ont été surnommés « ». Les unités E précédentes ont été surnommés les « nez incliné ». Après que l'Erie Lackawanna ait arrêté le transport de voyageurs en 1970, les E8 ont vu leurs jeux d'engrenages revus pour le transport de marchandises, devenant des unités très fiables pour l'EL. Ces unités ont été affectées à des trains de fret jusqu'au début de l'ère Conrail. Les unités désignées E8m ont été reconstruites à l'aide des composants de précédentes locomotives EMC/EMD. Extérieurement, ces unités sont comparables aux E8. La différence de puissance produite par les E8m due à la réutilisation d'anciens générateurs.
