Georg, To call the trailing loco a GR12 is totally misleading The list at http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_stock_used_by_Ferrocarril_de_Antofagasta_a_Bolivia is incorrect. I informed the author, when he saw fit to bastardise my original list on which his Wikipedia posting is based, the person who posted this list used others intellectual property. When EMD locomotives are rebuilt they are reclassified. The ex Colombian GR12 were rebuilt with 12-645 E3 turbo prime movers, so how can they be GR12? The correct classification is GT22C, if you really want to be pedantic GT22CU-3, as they use "universal" traction motors and have third generation electronics
