About This Content The SD70ACe is a powerful modern US diesel locomotive, and you can drive this terrific hauler in both modern and heritage colour schemes in Train Simulator. The EMD SD70 is a series of diesel-electric locomotives produced by the Electro-Motive Division (EMD) of General Motors beginning in 1992. Over 4000 locomotives in this series have been produced, and the type continues to be produced though EMD is no longer owned by General Motors. Introduced in 2004, the SD70ACe was designed to meet the latest EPA emissions regulations and featured a few other modifications over previous models, including AC electric motors for increased reliability and HTSC bolster-less trucks for simpler maintenance. Rated at 4,300 horsepower, the SD70ACe is in use on a number of railroads across the US. The SD70ACe for Train Simulator includes two colour schemes and scenarios for you to drive on the Cajon Pass (also available on Steam).IncludesSD70ACe in Union Pacific livery SD70ACe in Denver & Rio Grande Western liveryScenarios are available on Steam Workshop online and in-game.

Looks fantastic! I like the way the engine sounds when idling. Included is 2 liveries: UP and UP Heritage 1989 DRGW. Also is two scenarios for Cajon Pass(career and standard) and free roam. I recommend this add-on!. This loco is too OP to operate realistically. The couplers stretch like rubber bands and float in mid-air. The dynamic brakes are too OP and will always cause either wheelslip or derailment. If you do buy it, I personally don't recommend it for lead-unit operation in mountainous territory and for DPU operations as it can clip into the car in front of it, lift it off the rails, and if you're not careful derail your train.These issues are also present in the SD70Ace V2 pack.I bought these a few years ago and I haven't found much use for them.. Refuses to install into my game. Apparently I paid for nothing.. Picked it up since it was 90% off. Overall it's a old add-on being released back in 2012 so it does have it's issues that were never really fixed and carried over to the SD70 vol2 add-on and these include poor headlight illumination, weather affects like snow and rain don't appear on the windscreens, coupler stretching and bad dynamic braking which can prove a problem then acting in the DPU role or hilly terrain.Two scenarios for the Cajon Pass are included providing 100min of gameplay before it's off to the workshop to find further use for the two included liveries. Certainly wouldn't buy this at full price or if the discount is 50% but UP fans may overlook the issues perhaps.Now while Cajon Pass is not for sale on steam to outside America due issues with BNSF Just Trains does sell it and may be usefull to those looking for it: https:\/\/www.justtrains.net\/product\/rail-simulator-official-expansion-pack-downloadA sound enhancement is also available from Searchlight Simulations that cover several SD70 packs including this one: https:\/\/www.store.searchlight-simulations.com\/emd-16n-710g3c. I like this engine way more than I hate it, I like it because,- Nice Detail-Nice Sounds and Horn-Very Strong-The EMD SD70ace is literally my favorite engine in universal existanceWhat I think needs fixing is,-The Fact that the tank looks like it is scraping the track (makes it look like a rough ride)-The Headlights don't actually workOther than cons though... beautiful engine love it!
