Pacific Harbor Line SD40 #65

Pacific Harbor Line SD40 #65

In 2007, an effort to help reduce emissions in the Los Angeles / Long Beach, CA harbor areas, the Pacific Harbor Line acquired a group of 14 MP20C-3’s from Motive Power Industries in Boise Idaho. These units were originally powered by 2,000 horsepower MTU-Detroit diesel prime movers. In 2012, to meet the newer EPA Tier 3 standards, PHL had Progress Rail install CAT prime movers in all 14 units. MPI built PHL #’s 65 and 67 from cores of EMD SD40’s and our models are a representation of the real life MPI MP20C-3’s.
