......I sometimes wonder if these short little GE industrial switchers ever had a "real" designation, since they sold multiple locomotives of the same weight class, but different designs.

The steel plant where I worked had several GE centre-cabs, both 65 tonners and 85 tonners, and the 65 tonners had all been re-ballasted to 85 tons.




I just now checked in a GE catalogue (didn't see a date showing the period when it would have been applicable), and they offered diesel-electric locomotives in 25, 35, 44, 45, 50, 65, 70, 80, and 90 ton versions, with horsepower ratings ranging from 150 to 660.
The also offered a wide range of electric and battery-powered industrial locomotives.
