Yugoslav Railways Class 661 Kennedy

The EMD G16 is a diesel locomotive built by General Motors in the US and under licence by Clyde Engineering in Australia and MACOSA in Spain.
It has been used in Australia, Brazil, Egyptian Railways, Hong Kong, Israel Railways, Mexico, Spain, Yugoslav Railways and on the successor Croatian Railways, Slovenian Railways, Serbian Railways, Macedonian Railways, Railways of Republika Srpska, Kosovo Railways and Railways of Bosnia and Herzegovina Federation.
The EMD G16 (JŽ series 661) was one of the most used diesel locomotives in Yugoslavia.
The type is colloquially nicknamed 'Kenedi' after the US President John F. Kennedy. After the breakup in 1991, the locomotives were passed on to successor states:
In Croatia the locomotive is classified HŽ series 2061. As of 2007, the series has been withdrawn from service. Six modified units of the series 2061 is the series 2043.Today, they are all out of service or destroyed.
In Serbia, Bosnia and Herzegovina, North Macedonia and Slovenia have all kept the JŽ-era designation series 661
Today there are around 15 operational series 661 with Serbian Railways. Those locomotives are used mostly on non-electrified railways, primarily to haul freight trains, but also the passenger trains. In Slovenia, the last 661 series locomotive ran on 17 May 2013, and it is now preserved as a historical unit.
Kosovo Railways operates three former JŽ series 661. A fourth locomotive (001) was renumbered but is out of service. They no longer carry a type designation, instead they were just numbered 001 to 004. They are used to haul coal and clay trains.
Locomotives 661-203 began a rebuilding program in 2008, undertaken by TŽV Gredelj (Croatia) in association with Electro-Motive Diesel; the bogies and traction motors were retained, but with a new frame and engine (EMD 8-710G3A). The locomotives were also converted to twin cab designs.
The resulting new loco has EMD model code JT38CW-DC.
