The SD70ACe is Electro-Motive Diesel's hope for the future. While designed to meet the Environmental Protection Agency's Tier-2 emissions requirements that took effect on January 1, 2005, this replacement for the SD70MAC also seems to have a higher purpose: to recapture the lead in North American locomotive sales that EMD lost to General Electric in 1987.\u003cbr\u003eUnder the hood beats a third-generation model 710 diesel with 4300 horsepower; only slight modifications were needed to make the model 710 meet new emission standards. With 5000 such motors in service worldwide and a reputation for dependability, EMD reasoned that shop crews would prefer familiar technology.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eOther than the prime mover, however, virtually every element of the SD70ACe has been rethought to create a 21st-century locomotive. Ergonomics were a prime consideration. The engine's angular nose offers the crew far better visibility than most other locomotives, and the cab is comfortable for engineers of almost any size. Digital screens provide a range of information on what is happening both inside the locomotive and out on the road. The cab easily accommodates a crew of three - an important factor in a modern world without cabooses. And there is, of course, a cup holder for the engineer.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe RailKing Imperial SD70ACe is accurately decorated in modern motive power paint schemes. Our near-scale model is a full 17 in length, yet operates comfortably on O-31 curves. Under the hood of the Proto-Sound 3.0 version is the same sound and control system found in our more expensive Premier model of this locomotive - complete with sounds recorded from an actual Union Pacific SD70ACe. Additional Imperial features include operating diesel exhaust smoke and flashing ditch lights. If you're looking for realism and a lot of fun at a RailKing price, it doesn't get any better than this!\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eDid you know?\u003cbr\u003eIntelliTrain, an option on the SD70ACe, uses cellular and GPS technology to allow a railroad's maintenance department to monitor operating conditions and problems as they occur out on the road - making diagnosis and repair considerably easier.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIts key features are:\u003cbr\u003eConstant voltage headlight\u003cbr\u003eIntricately detailed ABSbody\u003cbr\u003eMetal wheels, axles and gears\u003cbr\u003eDiecast truck sides, pilots and fuel tank\u003cbr\u003eTwo remotely controlled Proto-Couplers®\u003cbr\u003eColorful paint scheme\u003cbr\u003eMetal chassis\u003cbr\u003eMetal handrails and decorative horn\u003cbr\u003eTwo precision flywheel equipped motors\u003cbr\u003eLocomotive speed control in scale MPH increments\u003cbr\u003eOperating ditch lights\u003cbr\u003eOperating smoke unit\u003cbr\u003eProto-sound 3.0 with The Digital Command System featuring: freight yard Proto-Effects\u003cbr\u003eUnit measures: 17 x 2 1\/2 x 3 3\/4\u003cbr\u003eOperates on O-31 curves\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eDiesel DCC features:\u003cbr\u003eHeadlight\u003cbr\u003eBell\u003cbr\u003eWhistle\/Horn\u003cbr\u003eStart up\/Shut down\u003cbr\u003eRear coupler\u003cbr\u003eFront coupler\u003cbr\u003eEngine sounds on\/off\u003cbr\u003eSound volume\u003cbr\u003eand much more!\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThis item has been graded per TCA standards C-6: Very Good based on visual appearance.
