The current cornerstone of the Railpower line is the three-engined RP20BD, which features a trio of Deutz 667-hp engines for a total of 2,000 horsepower. The RP20BD is a four-axle road switcher most recognizable from other models by the six engine exhaust stacks on the top of the long hood. | |

1 Unit RPRX 5600 Y896-899 |
The RP20CD is a six-axle, three engine, 2,000 hp road switcher intended for an SD38, SD40 or similar locomotive. The first four are under construction at CAD for UP using retired SD40-2 frames. All appearances are that they should be similar to the RP20BD, but on longer frames. | |

Railpower's six axle catalog is rounded out by the RP27CD, which combines four Deutz engines with a six-axle SD40 or similar platform for a 2,667 hp road switcher. None of these models have been built to date. |
