Compiled by Larry Russell, with 10 specifications provided by Andre Kristopans. Taken from messages posted to the LocoNotes discussion Yahoo Group on July 8, 2009.

See also: Extra 2200 South, Issue 41 (1973).

Note that GMD used the system as well and marked DD in front of the specification number.

Andre Kristopans commented on August 9, 2009 that "It would appear that export types are in the same sequence as domestics, but with 1st digit of "9" instead of "8." Any clues as to where the first "standard" exports, the G-8 and G-12 belong? They were first introduced about 1954, at roughly the same time as the domestic "9-line," so maybe around 9033 and 9034? Also, SD24 being 9012 sounds very strange, first for being a 9000, which should be export, then for being WAY out of place in the sequence. 8035 might make more sense."
