DESCRIPTION
Commissioned by CP (Now-CPKC), we worked together to bring you the Progress Rail SD70ACU in Train Simulator Classic. Created with 3D scanning with an extremely high degree of accuracy, and working hand-in-hand with the art team behind the Heritage and Veteran's units, we've brought this locomotive in with high fidelity.
The Progress Rail/EMD SD70ACU is a creation spawned from railroads seeking to utilize the disenfranchised EMD SD9043MAC platform which struggled with multiple design flaws, software issues, and electrical system bugs that also had eventual support withdrawal. First ordered by Norfolk Southern, the ACU project replaces everything from the electrical cabinet forward with newer components sourced from the ACe product line such as the Mitsubishi sourced traction system including motors, ACe spec isolated cabs, new low and high voltage compartments, and EMD's FIRE display systems to interact with EM2000 engine and systems management computers.
