Type JT22MC Diesel Locomotive

Among the earlier types in a fleet that with one exception is all GM-powered is this series of mixed traffic Co-cos supplied to the Egyptian system by GM from the late 1970s.

Special features
These 45 locomotives were supplied in four batches over a six-year period from 1979, production being shared between GM's EMD plant in the USA and its London, Ontario, facility in Canada. The JT22MC model employs the 12-cylinder version of the GM 645E3 power unit in a full body with a cabin design similar to that fitted to contemporary deliveries to Ireland and Spain, ENR uses the fleet as general-purpose locomotives.

Other countries operated
GM supplied examples of its JT22C model to Iraq, Ireland (IR class 071|NIR Class 111); Sudan (Class 1900) and Yugoslavia (JZ Class 666)
