This looks like a GP10, Its not a GP16, do you know where to find a Tacoma roster?

It sure does look like a GP16. IC GP10s were rebuilt out of GP9s, so they would not have the GP7 louver arrangement, and the IC rebuilt GP7s were called GP8s. When they rebuilt them, they reconfigured the louvers anyway. SCL did not. Ignore the 48" fans and compare it to an SCL GP16. It's a GP16 with replacement fans.

Matt is right, even though a few GP9's and GP18's were used to rebuild the GP16, they all looked like GP7's with low short hoods. Well I found out that Tacoma calls this a GP16u because they did replace the fans.

Tacoma Rail's roster is at www.mytpu.org, which lists this loco as a GP20, although it looks different from TRMW 2005 and 2006 which I saw today.
