The G26 is a General Motors diesel-electric locomotive built in the USA by Electro-Motive Diesel for export and in Australia by Clyde Engineering under licence. The G26 was developed to increase traction capacities on the tracks which supported lesser axle loadings. They were intended for main line freight and passenger traffic. Rail companies using the G26 locomotives in the past or present include Australian Railroad Group, Freight Australia, Croatian Railways, PT Kereta Api in Indonesia, Islamic Republic of Iran Railways, Israel Railways, Korail, ONCF in Morocco, JŽ in Yugoslavia, and others. ==Australia== The Victorian Railways purchased 24 G26C locomotives built in Australia by Clyde Engineering, called the X class.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=V/Line: X/XR/XRB Class )〕 They are now operated by Pacific National and QR National.
