176-8544-DCC SD70ACU Diesel CP Military Heritage 7023 Grey - DCC-Fitted
In many ways, the SD70ACU is a modified SD90MAC. The SD90MAC struggled to find a place on US and Canadian Railroads in the 90s. While Union Pacific and Canadian Pacific purchased many of these engines ā smaller railroads felt alienated from the gigantic prime movers which limited the SD90MACās operational use. In 2016 Norfolk Southern decided to convert several SD90MACs to SD70ACUs, the Siemens tech was swapped with Mitsubishi components and the cab was replaced with the SD70ACeās cab.
Canadian Pacific decided to rebuild their collection of SD90MACs as well. However instead of going to Norfolk Southern to rebuild these engines, they reached out to Progress Rail instead. 60 ACUs were delivered in 2019, and this order contained several heritage units. These special heritage units were used to commemorate different branches of the US and Canadian Army.Ā 1:160 Scale model of a SD70ACU Diesel Locomotive decorated in Canadian Pacific livery. This model features lots of expertly applied details as based on the prototype, a high level of body detail and excellent running characteristics.
