What's The Purpose Anymore?

It is a strange thing the new evolution of GP power stopped at the GP60 a long time ago. Shortly after "a long time ago"
several locomotive rebuild companies came to be and all they do is rebuild GP's. Send in your shot GP 30's-GP 35's-GP 40's
and they come back as GP39-3's.

But, what about the 2-4-6-8 Cadillac imitator ES44C4 locomotives? Remember those dreadful Cadillacs that dropped cylinders auto-magically? Anyway, are these still a thing?

PS: the video doesn't seem to show schitt to my naked eyes. I'll put some clothes on. Still nothing

The lower air cylinder coming out is what picks the wheel up off the rail..
