The headliner of GE's 1993 freight locomotive line was the 6 motor, 4400hp C44-9W "Dash 9." Slightly longer than its predecessors at 73 feet, 2 inches, the C44-9W used a new HiAd, bolster less low-weight truck that was designed for better grip on the rails no matter the weather. A split cooling system lowered engine temperatures and fuel consumption as well, granting these locomotives a longer operation life and lower overhead costs.
