Description
Prototype Information:
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.
The Union Pacific has currently put in the largest purchase order for these units, and as a display of respect for the railroads it has incorporated, has produced six "Heritage" style painted locomotives with road numbers designated by the year they were merged into the UP.
Union Pacific #1111, dubbed the “Employee Pride” locomotive, was created to honor the men and women of the Union Pacific railroad. Officially unveiled on June 6th, 2019, the locomotive depicts the broad and diverse array of employees who “Power” the Union pacific, paying homage to their roles in building and maintaining the railroad as it operates today. The locomotive’s number – 1111 – represents Union Pacific’s goal to be the #1 railroad with #1 employees with the #1 safety dedication towards 1 vision – Building America.
