The GE U17C diesel-electric locomotive was introduced by GE Transportation as an export model roadswitcher in 1973.

Easy to spot due to its relatively short length — {{convert|52|ft|9|in|m|2|abbr=on}} — it was powered by the 8-cylinder FDL-8T engine.[1]

Very similar to the U18B, it included an extended body section to house a larger air filter and cooling units.

Original purchasers included Syria's CFS,[1] and the Lebanese national railway company.[2]

The GE U17C is also used on the Aqaba Railway Corporation for transporting phosphates from the Mines to Aqaba.
