A total of 706 GP38 locomotives were produced, and the type became a common sight on North American railroads throughout the 1970s, 1980s and 1990s. Many GP38s were later rebuilt and upgraded, extending the service lives of these dependable EMD road switchers for decades.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eCanadian Pacific Kansas City GP38 #2000\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThis release represents \u003cstrong\u003eCanadian Pacific Kansas City (CPKC) #2000\u003c\/strong\u003e.
