Built in La Grange, Illinois between 1945 and 1949, the 2,000-horsepower E7 was one of the most successful and recognizable passenger diesels of its era. A total of 428 cab-equipped E7A units and 82 booster E7B units rolled off the production line, powered by twin 12-cylinder 567A engines that delivered smooth, dependable performance. As the eighth model in EMD’s iconic E-unit series, the E7 quickly became the best-selling E model of its time—earning its place at the head end of America’s premier passenger trains.
With its bold, confident profile, the E7 introduced the famous “bulldog nose” styling that would define later models like the E8 and E9. More than 20 railroads rostered these striking locomotives, making them a true nationwide icon. Today, only one example remains: former Pennsylvania Railroad E7A #5901, preserved and beautifully restored at the Railroad Museum of Pennsylvania.
