Description
EMD introduced the SD70ACe in 2004 as the AC-traction standard-bearer of its 70-series line. Powered by the proven 4,300 hp 16-710 prime mover and riding on radial HTCR trucks, the SD70ACe became a mainstay of heavy coal, grain and manifest service across North America, and Norfolk Southern's fleet remains in front-line duty today.
This Walthers Mainline HO scale SD70ACe models Norfolk Southern's officially licensed America250 commemorative unit "The Freedom" No. 250, celebrating the 250th anniversary of American independence.
