Virginian. The SD70ACe is the latest in the line of EMD's ''70'' locomotives, an evolution of the SD70MAC, although its radiator design harkens more to that of the SD80\/90 body. The SD70ACe has been designed to fit the latest EPA standards and regulations, and sports 4300 horsepower.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIn 2012, to celebrate its 30th anniversary, Norfolk Southern painted a total of 20 locomotives (10 SD70ACe’s) into commemorative schemes that honored the railroads that had merged over the years to form modern day NS. Established through the financial backing of the oil magnate Henry Huttleston Rogers, the Virginian was a coal shuttling service that ran from coal mines in West Virginia to the port at Hampton Roads, built privately and efficiently without any public debt or funding.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIts key features are:\u003cbr\u003eSpecial ''Isolated cab'' tooling with Norfolk Southern accurate nose and roof detailing\u003cbr\u003eVibrant ''heritage series'' paint job\u003cbr\u003ePowerful Kato mechanism powered by a 5-pole flywheel motor and featuring a 9 3\/4'' minimum turning radius\u003cbr\u003eDirectional Headlight and illuminated, preprinted numberboards\u003cbr\u003eIlluminated ditch lights\u003cbr\u003eDCC Friendly mechanism ready for drop-in decoder installation\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCondition:\u003c\/strong\u003e Factory New (\u003ca href=\"#\" title=\"C-9: All original; unused; factory rubs and evidence of handling, shipping and factory test run.
