The GE U33C is a six-axle diesel-electric locomotive that GE Transportation Systems built between January 1968 and January 1975. In all 375 were built for 11 North American railroads and one construction contractor. The production run lasted just over seven years. A cab built from numerous GE locomotive parts and representing Delaware and Hudson number 757 is preserved at the Toronto Railway Museum, where it is in use as a locomotive simulator.
