 Re: (erielack) Survival of "classic" Erie and DL&W equipment
Possibly F8 was skipped to synch up F/GP/SD9 with E9 passenger units even though the E's used 12 cylinder engines and the freight units used 16's.
When F units were discontinued the GP series started using the first two numbers of the horsepower ratings for their designations with the GP/SD18 1800 HP, GP20 2000 HP and SD24 2400 HP units.
When GE came out with the U28 it was apparent that GE didn't care about reusing EMD's series numbering designations for their own units and I don't think anyone paid too much attention to wheezing ALCo with their 628's and 425's.

  EMD E9 - Encyclopedia, History, Geography and Biography
EMD E9
The EMD E9 was a 2,400 hp, A1A-A1A passenger train-hauling diesel locomotive built by General Motors' Electro-Motive Division of La Grange, Illinois between May 1954 and December 1963.
The E9 was the tenth and final model of EMD E-unit produced, and differed from the earlier E8 as built only by the newer engines and a different, flusher-fitting mounting for the headlight glass, the latter being the only externally visible difference.

 EMD   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-09-17)
After the 2nd world war, EMD started with the mass production of the E7 and E8, which was succeeded in 1955 by the E9.
EMD was looking for innovations and revolutionized the locomotive industry with the introduction of the AC traction technology.
EMD had produced 500 units already when production ceased during the 2nd world war from 1942 to 1943.

 EMD E7 - TvWiki, the free encyclopedia
The EMD E7 was a 2,000 hp, A1A-A1A passenger train locomotive manufactured by General Motors' Electro-Motive Division of La Grange, Illinois.
The E7 was the eighth model in a long line of passenger diesels of similar design known as EMD E-units.
Compared with other passenger locomotives made earlier by EMD, the noses of the E7 cab units had the appearance of a bulldog’s snout when viewed from the side.

 The Politics of Emergency Medical Dispatch
The basic fact is that there has never been a pre-arrival instruction-related lawsuit filed against the EMD professional who was certified and followed the protocols for their system.
The reality of EMD is that with a quality EMD program, the first event to occur is the dispatching of the EMD provider.
The EMD originally interrogating the caller has assessed the situation and is now prepared to give the correct and appropriate pre-arrival instructions.

 Union Pacific AFE Notes
EMD letter of March 21, 1940 offered 10 or 15, "including the one which we now have," with 96 monthly (8 years) payments, with 1-3/4 percent interest (not a lease or an equipment trust).
EMD advised that the units were under construction and "after a couple weeks of demonstration in the latter part of the month, it can make delivery of the four units to us during the first week of October." (Letter, Stoddard to Charske, September 13, 1952)
EMD constructed the unit for experimental purposes and it has had little road use, and would be sold to UP with a new locomotive warranty.

 S. Berliner, III's EMD Page
The 6900 is preserved in running condition with the venerable 4-8-4 Northern 844 and 4-6-6-4 Challenger 3985 at UP's Cheyenne roundhouse (and the 6946, built 9-1971, b/n 35520, last of 47 "Centennial" locomotives constructed, was donated by UP to the Feather River Rail Society and sits at their Portola Railroad Museum in the high Sierras).
EMD declined, stating low profits forecast for another special design, and referred the UP team to the Berlinerwerke, with which EMD had a close working relationship.
The DDP45 uses two standard EMD D trucks with heavier journals, spanning two pairs of DD35 fuel tanks (it was felt that it was safer and less expensive to have multiple smaller tanks).

This locomotive was necessary because the standard configuration EMD SD45 could not get a sufficient amount of cool air into the diesel locomotive's radiatior while working Southern Pacific's extensive snow shed and tunnel system in the Cascades and Donner Pass.
These "Tunnel Motors" were essentially EMD SD45s with radiator air intakes located at the locomotive carbody's walkway level, rather than EMD's typical radiator setup with fans on the locomotive's long hood roof blowing fresh air downwards through the radiator.
Inside tunnels and snow sheds, the hot exhaust gases from lead units would accumulate near the top of the tunnel or snow shed, and be drawn into the radiators of trailing EMD (non-tunnel motor) locomotives, leading these locomotives to shut down as their diesel prime mover overheated.

And once production resumed in 1945, many were led by brand-new E7 diesels from EMD.
These units were built through 1954, when the virtually identical E9 with its 567C prime movers was introduced.
