GE Transportation plans to eliminate all locomotive production at its Lawrence Park Township plant, except for prototype development, by the end of 2018. That work is being transferred to Fort Worth, Texas.

The decision will result in the loss of as many as 575 hourly jobs, said Deia Campanelli, communications leader for GE Transportation. The plant currently employs more than 2,500 people.

The company is expected within the next 60 days to begin “decision bargaining” over the jobs with Local 506 of the United Electrical, Radio and Machine Workers of America — the union that represents those employees.

“We remain committed to Erie,” Campanelli said. “The Erie plant will remain GE Transportation’s largest plant.”
