I don't know, but can you tell by looking? There ar a bunch of photos of BNSF GEVO at
http://evans.railfan.net/GEVO.htm
including a close-up of the roof of the engine compartment with the horns in full view.

My favorite would be the Southern Pacific U33Cs and Erie Lackawannas U34CH, later belonging to NJ Transit, what a sound those things made, I could hear them over 2 miles away, and standing next to the ROW when they eased a pax out of a station they would shake the ground. I miss the dinosaurs.

They're either a Nathan K5H or K5HA. Which of the two I can't say--I read somewhere that the BNSF units came with K5LA/K5HA hybrids, the same as the horns delivered on a few Amtrak P42s.

Mine would have to be the GG1. A locomotive that was just way ahead of its time. In a close would be those NS Standard cab Dash 9s. just an odd unit being one of a kind and all. And then for good measure throw in the CSX CW60ACs.

My favorite GE engines are the gas turbines they built for propulsion on USN destroyers.

If I had to choose it would be the P42's but I hate GE's.
