KCS has traditionally been an EMD railroad, but after EMD's quality decreased in the 80s and 90s, KCS (like all railroads) made some GE purchases. Today, they have 240 GE units on the roster, accounting for roughly 1/3 of all their power. That does not include Kansas City Southern de Mexico, which has 320 GE units, and accounts for about 60% of the KCSM roster. For both KCS and KCSM, all 560 units are split between two models: AC4400CWs and ES44ACs.
