Article

EMD 1800 hp B-B

Portion used

Whole image at low resolution

Low resolution?

Yes, insufficient for print

Purpose of use

Illustrates the locomotive design for identification and for discussion of its design. Without an image, the article is incomplete as a description of the design does not suffice.

Replaceable?

Irreplaceable; the locomotive no longer exists and cannot be photographed. A GFDL image could only be obtained by convincing the copyright holder of an image to release it under a free license, which is unlikely.
