A total of 321 units were produced.

Designed to meet Amtrak's specifications, the Genesis series is {{convert|14|ft|4|in}} tall. This allows for easier travel through low-clearance tunnels in the Northeast Corridor, especially compared to the earlier EMD F40PH which was {{convert|14|in|0}} taller.

==Technical design== The GE Genesis series stands out for its unique, lightweight monocoque carbody design, styled by industrial designer Cesar Vergara.<ref>{{cite news |title=High style, high tech; Putting style back on track |newspaper=Toronto Star |first=Greg |last=Gormick |date=November 21, 2005 |page=D01 |id = {{ProQuest|438900729}}}}</ref> This innovative approach translates to improved aerodynamics and fuel efficiency compared to its predecessors.<ref>{{cite patent||country=US|number=5535680|pubdate=1996-07-16|title=Monocoque locomotive|assign1=General Electric Company|inventor1-last=Bieber|inventor1-first=Allen C.}}</ref> However, the complexity of the monocoque design results in slightly higher maintenance and repair costs. Notably, Amtrak equips its Genesis locomotives with bolt-on nose cones to facilitate rapid repairs in the event of a grade crossing collision.{{Citation needed|date=April 2024}}

The Genesis represents a significant leap forward in performance. It has a 22% improvement in fuel efficiency and delivers 25% more power compared to the F40PH.<ref name="PTJ">{{cite journal|last=Warner|first=David C|title=AMD103: Powering Amtrak Into the 21st Century|journal = Passenger Train Journal|publisher=Interurban Press|volume = 24, No. 6|issue = 186|pages = 23|date = June 1993|issn = 0160-6913}}</ref> Furthermore, all Genesis locomotives utilize modern, four-stroke engines, surpassing the two-stroke technology employed in earlier EMD counterparts.{{Citation needed|date=April 2024}}

Further enhancing reliability, the Genesis is a fully computerized locomotive. Its onboard computer systems automatically manage various functions, including real-time adjustments to engine output in response to overheating, low oil pressure, or reduced airflow intake. This ensures continued operation during minor operational deviations, streamlining maintenance requirements.<ref name="PTJ" />

All Genesis locomotives provide head-end power (HEP) to the train via an alternator or inverter powered by the main engine. This system delivers a maximum output of {{convert|800|kW}}, capable of powering up to 16 Superliner railcars. The P40DC and P42DC models offer two HEP configurations: normal mode with the engine speed locked at 900 rpm for providing both HEP and traction power, and standby mode with the engine speed locked at 720 rpm for HEP only (no traction power). The P32AC-DM offers greater operational flexibility with its HEP inverter. The engine can run at 1,047 rpm while delivering both traction power and HEP. Additionally, it can idle at 620 rpm (notch three) while still providing HEP for lighting and air conditioning when not in use for traction.{{Citation needed|date=April 2024}}

The Genesis uses trucks manufactured by Krupp Verkehrstechnik [[:de:Lokomotiv-_und_Waggonbaufabrik_Krupp|[de]]], which has since been acquired by Siemens Mobility. Newer Genesis locomotives reflect this change and carry the Siemens name.{{Citation needed|date=April 2024}}

==Models== Three models of Genesis were built by General Electric, the P40DC, P42DC, and P32AC-DM.

===P40DC=== thumb|left|CT Rail P40DC No. 6707 (Ex. Amtrak P40DC No. 843) idle at New Haven Union Station The '''P40DC''' (''GENESIS Series I'')<ref>P40DC Builders Plate https://www.flickr.com/photos/davidfullarton/4412331923/</ref> or Dash 8-40BP (originally known as the '''AMD-103''' for Amtrak Monocoque Diesel - 103MPH) is the first model in the Genesis series, built in 1993.<ref>{{Cite magazine |date=August 1993 |title=Make way for the Genesis Series |magazine=Trains |volume=53}}</ref> The locomotive operates in a diesel-electric configuration that uses DC to power the traction motors, producing {{convert|4000|hp|lk=in|sigfig=3}} at 1047 rpm. Power output to the traction motors is {{convert|3550|hp|abbr=on}} when running in HEP mode (900 rpm) with a 0&nbsp;kW HEP load. Traction power in HEP mode decreases to {{convert|2525|hp|sigfig=3}} when providing the maximum {{convert|800|kW|abbr=on}} HEP load to the train. The P40DC is geared for a maximum speed of {{convert|103|mph}}. The P40DC was succeeded in 1996 by the P42DC.

A feature unique to the P40DC and P32AC-DM is a hostler stand at the rear of the locomotive providing increased visibility and reversing capabilities to the engineer while conducting reverse operations. When a unit is in operation from this stand it is limited to {{convert|10|mph|abbr=on}} and a dead man's switch protects against movement without an operator being present. Another unique feature to the original P40DC were the two strobes above the cab and an emergency flasher between the strobes. When they were overhauled, those features were removed.<ref name="PTJ" />

Both the P40DC and P42DC allowed Amtrak to operate heavy long-distance trains with fewer locomotives compared to the older EMD F40PH locomotives; two P40DCs could do the same work as three F40PHs.

Additional deliveries of the P42DC ended up replacing the P40DCs. Three units were prematurely wrecked (819 in the 1993 Big Bayou Canot train wreck, 807 and 829 in the 1999 Bourbonnais, Illinois, train crash) and scrapped. Eight were leased and later sold to the Connecticut DOT for Shore Line East in 2005, and four were rebuilt and sold to New Jersey Transit in 2007; NJ Transit sold its units to Connecticut Department of Transportation (CTDOT) in 2015. The remaining 28 units were placed out-of-service for many years. 15 of these units were rebuilt using 2009 ARRA stimulus funds and returned to service, now in the Phase V livery, except for 822, which was painted in Phase III Heritage livery for Amtrak's 40th Anniversary.<ref name="Storage">{{Cite web|url=http://on-track-on-line.com/amtkrinf-p40store.shtml|title=On Track On Line - Stored, Sold and Leased P40s|website=on-track-on-line.com}}</ref>{{self-published source|date=May 2025}} <!-- The remaining Amtrak P40DCs were retired in August 2025 upon delivery of additional Siemens ALC-42 locomotives. -->

In January 2018, CTDOT awarded a contract to Amtrak to overhaul their twelve P40DC locomotives at the Beech Grove Shops.<ref>{{Cite web |url=https://biznet.ct.gov/SCP_Documents/Results/19607/Contract%20Award%20Posted%205-25-18.pdf |title=Notice of Contract Award |date=April 25, 2018 |publisher=Connecticut Department of Transportation}}</ref> The first unit was completed in early 2021.<ref>{{cite news |url=https://www.trains.com/trn/news-reviews/news-wire/news-photo-first-cdot-p40-rebuild-debuts/ |title=News Photo: First CDOT P40 rebuild debuts |newspaper=Trains News Wire |date=March 8, 2021}}</ref> With the introduction of M8 EMU trains for Shore Line East service, the rebuilt P40DCs are now exclusively used on the Hartford Line.

====Upgraded and "Stimulus" P40DCs==== thumb|left|Amtrak P40DC No. 823 on the Lincoln service in 2012 By 2007, New Jersey Transit had upgraded their P40DC units with updated prime movers to match the {{convert|4250|hp}} of the successor P42DC.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://rrpicturearchives.net/showPicture.aspx?id=878935 |title=NJT 808 |author=Donald Albertson |date=September 13, 2007 |publisher=rrpicturearchives.net |access-date=September 27, 2010 |url-status=dead |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20110716051936/http://rrpicturearchives.net/showPicture.aspx?id=878935 |archive-date=July 16, 2011 }}</ref> This was done by readjusting the position of the lay shafts within the prime mover.{{Citation needed|date=October 2017}}

Amtrak returned 15 of their P40DC units to service as part of a project funded through Transportation Investment Generating Economic Recovery (TIGER) grants, which were part of the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009.<ref>http://www.amtrak.com/pdf/ARRA/Amtrak-ARRA_Project-Summary-FY-09.pdf Amtrak ARRAProject List</ref> The first of the units were returned to service in March 2010 after being overhauled at the Beech Grove Shops. They were upgraded like NJT's units had been a few years before to have {{convert|4250|hp|abbr=on}} and match the P42DC's maximum speed of {{convert|110|mph|sigfig=3|abbr=on}}. They also received updated cab signaling systems. The upgraded locomotives still had mechanical air brakes, which makes them most suitable for trains that only require a single locomotive. This differs from the electronic air brakes on the P42DC and P32AC-DM.<ref name="trains-oct-2010">{{cite magazine|title=Beech Grove to the Rescue|magazine=Trains|date=October 2010|author=Bob Johnston|volume=70|issue=10|pages=48–53}}</ref> They also featured a builder's plate indicating that they were rebuilt under the auspices of the TIGER program.

===P42DC=== thumb|Amtrak P42DC No. 39 on the {{lnl|Amtrak|Capitol Limited}}

The '''P42DC''' (''GENESIS Series I'')<ref>P42 Builders Plate https://www.flickr.com/photos/76498245@N05/6871547365/in/photostream</ref> is the successor model to the P40DC. It has an engine output of {{convert|4250|hp|lk=in|sigfig=3}} at 1,047 rpm, or {{convert|3550|hp|sigfig=3}} when running in HEP mode (900 rpm) with a 0&nbsp;kW HEP load. As with the P40DC, traction horsepower in HEP mode decreases to {{convert|2525|hp|sigfig=3}} when providing the full 800 kW HEP load to the train.

The P42DC has a maximum speed of {{convert|110|mph|abbr=on|sigfig=3}} compared to the 103&nbsp;mph (166&nbsp;km/h) maximum speed of the P40DC. Tractive effort is rated at {{convert|280.25|kN|lbf|abbr=on|sigfig=3}} of starting effort and {{convert|169|kN|lbf|abbr=on|sigfig=3}} of continuous effort at {{cvt|38|mph}} given wheel power of {{convert|3850|hp|sigfig=3}}.<ref name="Page 14"/>

P42DCs are used primarily on most of Amtrak's long-haul and higher-speed rail service outside the Northeast and lower Empire Corridors. They will be replaced on long-distance service by 125 Siemens ALC-42 Charger locomotives between 2021 and 2024, but will remain in service on shorter corridor trains.<ref>{{cite press release |url=https://media.amtrak.com/2018/12/amtrak-to-improve-national-network-with-new-locomotives/ |title=Amtrak to Improve National Network with New Locomotives |date=December 21, 2018 |publisher=Amtrak |access-date=February 3, 2020 |archive-date=January 26, 2021 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20210126125526/https://media.amtrak.com/2018/12/amtrak-to-improve-national-network-with-new-locomotives/ |url-status=dead }}</ref>

Via Rail Canada has also utilized P42DC (also designated as EPA-42as) since 2001. The P42DCs replaced the LRC locomotives that same year. They are currently on services with speeds up to {{convert|100|mph|abbr=on|sigfig=3}}, mainly on the Quebec City-Windsor rail corridor.<ref>{{Cite web|url=https://corpo.viarail.ca/en/projects-infrastructure/train-fleet/locomotives-p42dc|title=Locomotives - P42DC &#124; VIA Rail|website=corpo.viarail.ca}}</ref>

====P42C==== thumb|P42C No. 9700 (Ex. P42DC No. 184) at New York Penn Station The P42C is a non-powered control unit (cab car) converted by Amtrak from retired P42DC locomotives, with the first conversion completed in 2024. Amtrak plans to eventually convert 18 Genesis locomotives into P42Cs for use across its network. The first locomotive converted was former P42DC No. 184, which became P42C No. 9700. It entered service in June 2025.<ref>{{cite news |url=https://www.trains.com/trn/news-reviews/news-wire/news-photo-amtrak-now-using-converted-p42-as-cab-car/ |title=News photo: Amtrak now using converted P42 as cab car |first=Bob |last=Johnston |date=June 25, 2025 |newspaper=Trains News Wire |access-date=June 26, 2025}}</ref>

Unlike the earlier NPCU conversions derived from F40PH locomotives, the P42Cs retain most of their internal components for ride quality purposes, as the earlier EMD F40PH NPCUs were found to provide a rough ride for engineers due to insufficient weight.<ref name=":0">{{cite news |url=https://www.trains.com/trn/railroads/locomotives/amtrak-npcu-cabbage-locomotives/ |title=Amtrak NPCU 'Cabbage' locomotives |last=Guss |first=Chris| date=November 4, 2024 |access-date=February 3, 2025 |newspaper=Trains Magazine}}</ref> The P42Cs also differ from the original F40PH NPCUs in that they do not feature a baggage compartment. Because the P42DC uses a monocoque body design in which the carbody forms part of the locomotive's structural support, large side openings for the roll-up baggage doors could not be added.<ref name=":0" />

===P32AC-DM=== thumb|Metro-North P32AC-DM No. 212 at Poughkeepsie, New York in 2023 The '''P32AC-DM''' (''GENESIS Series 2'',<ref>{{cite web|url=https://www.flickr.com/photos/blazer8696/4984725506/|title=Genesis Builders Plate}}</ref> short for "Passenger, {{cvt|3200|hp|kW}}, Alternating Current, Dual Mode")<ref name="RapidoTrains1">{{cite web|url=https://rapidotrains.com/p32-masterclass|title=P32 Masterclass|website=Rapido Trains Inc.}}</ref> was developed for both Amtrak and Metro-North. They can be powered either by their diesel prime mover or for a short duration via electricity from a 750 volt third rail. The third rail shoes are used on the over-running third rail into Penn Station for Amtrak units and the under-running third rail into Grand Central Terminal for Metro-North. The P32AC-DM is rated at {{convert|3200|hp|lk=in|sigfig=3}}, {{convert|2900|hp|lk=in|sigfig=3}} when supplying HEP, and is geared for a maximum speed of {{convert|110|mph|abbr=on|sigfig=3}}. Tractive effort is rated at {{convert|275.8|kN|lbf|abbr=on|sigfig=3}} of starting effort from zero to {{cvt|14|mph}} and {{convert|113.43|kN|lbf|abbr=on|sigfig=3}} of continuous effort at {{cvt|40|mph}} given wheel power of {{convert|2700|hp|sigfig=3}}.<ref name="Page 29"/>

Unlike the other Genesis variants, the P32AC-DM uses AC (alternating current) traction motors rather than DC (direct current) motors, and has a smaller 12-cylinder prime mover instead of a 16-cylinder.<ref>{{cite book |url=https://books.google.com/books?id=bVEhihy7tKEC&q=ac+traction+motors+genesis&pg=PA160 |title=American Diesel Locomotives |author=Brian Solomon |page=160 |publisher=MBI Publishing Company |isbn=0-7603-0666-4 |year=2000 |access-date=September 25, 2008 }}</ref><ref name="RapidoTrains1" />

The P32AC-DM is only used on services operating north from New York City, where diesel emissions through its two fully enclosed main terminal stations are prohibited. Third rail use is limited; it can only be used for about 10 minutes due to thermal limitations.<ref>{{cite web|url=https://assets.metrolinx.com/image/upload/Documents/Metrolinx/Appendix4.pdf|title=Appendix 4 Rolling Stock Technology Assessment|publisher=Metrolinx|date=October 2010|access-date=October 1, 2025|quote=Further, only the LIRR DM30AC locomotives have thermal ratings that allow them to operate continuously in electric mode; the Amtrak and MNR P32DM‐AC (sic) locomotives have short‐term ratings that limit their use to about 10 minutes of operation to and from the electrified tunnels of New York.|quote-page=17}}</ref> Metro-North's P32AC-DM's only use electric mode in the 4 miles of tunnel leading to Grand Central Terminal, and use diesel elsewhere even if third rail is available, unlike their Siemens SC-42DM intended replacements, which will use electric mode everywhere third rail is available.<ref name="MTA_PR_20241101">{{cite press release|url=https://www.mta.info/press-release/mta-unveils-new-modern-metro-north-locomotives|title=MTA Unveils New Modern Metro-North Locomotives|date=Nov 1, 2024|access-date=October 1, 2025|publisher=Metro-North Railroad}}</ref>
