This documentary traces how the EMD G26 export locomotive, never intended for American railroads, found a second life on U.S. industrial lines decades later. Built for lighter rail, rough track, and minimal maintenance, the G26 was rejected by Class I railroads but proved ideal for ports, plants, and industrial switching. As export fleets were displaced, these locomotives quietly returned home, valued for their low axle loads, simple systems, and strong low-speed torque. The result is an accidental success story about matching machines to the environments they were unknowingly built for.
