Each model is powered by a 16-cylinder, 4300-horsepower diesel engine. On the SD70M-2, the prime mover drives an alternator and produces AC current that is rectified to DC current, which powers the traction motors. On the SD70ACe, the DC current is then “chopped” back into AC to power the traction motors.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMuch of the external design is based on the SD90 series locomotives. Similar features include the full height nose door and rectangular windshields, the large, flared radiators with two fans, and the positioning of the dynamic brake equipment at the rear of the long hood. In addition, the inverters were moved from inside the long hood to a box on the walkway behind the fireman’s side of the cab.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eUnion Pacific unveiled 6 SD70ACe locomotives with unique “Heritage” paint schemes in 2005 and 2006 to commemorate roads which they had absorbed or merged. These roads are the MP, WP, MKT, SP, DRGW, and CNW. The locomotives are numbered after the years which the mergers took place, or, in the case of the DRGW unit, the year that Rio Grande Industries acquired the assets of Southern Pacific.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFEATURES:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eUnique heritage paint schemes introduced in 2006\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDetailed to represent the units as the look currently\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePTC antenna roofs\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAnimated rotating roller bearing caps\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRe-tooled plows with grab irons\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFlexible rubber trainline hose\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFlexible rubber MU hoses\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eEtched see-through steps\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLift rings\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLit Number Boards \u0026amp; Truck Lights\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSander lines\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMinimum radius: 18” — Recommended radius: 22”\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCoupler cut levers\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMU hoses\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTrainline hose\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSee-through cab windows\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFull cab interior\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWalkway tread\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWindshield wipers\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWire grab irons\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDCC-ready features Quick Plug™ plug-and-play technology with 21-pin NEM connector\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFine-scale Celcon handrails for scale appearance\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDetailed fuel tank with fuel fillers, fuel gauges, breather pipes, and retention tanks\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBody-mounted McHenry® operating scale knuckle couplers\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGenesis driveline with 5-pole skew wound motor, precision machined flywheels, and multi-link drivetrain for trouble free operation\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eEight-wheel drive with precision gears for smooth and quiet operation\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAll-wheel electrical pickup provides reliable current flow\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWheels with RP25 contours operate on all popular brands of track\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLED Lighting for trouble free operation\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHeavy die-cast frame for greater traction and more pulling power\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eScaled from prototype resources including drawings, field measurements, photographs, and more\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAccurately-painted and –printed paint schemes\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFully-assembled and ready-to-run\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePackaging securely holds the model for safe storage\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSOUND-EQUIPPED MODELS ALSO FEATURE:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOnboard DCC decoder with SoundTraxx Tsunami2 sound\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDual cube speakers for optimal sound quality\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSound units operate in both DC and DCC\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFull DCC functions available when operated in DCC mode\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eEngine, horn, and bell sounds work in DC\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAll functions NMRA compatible in DCC mode\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePrecision slow speed control\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eProgram a multiple unit (MU) lashup with lead unit only horn, bell, and lights\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMany functions can be altered via Configuration Value (CV) changes\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCV chart included in the box\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSPECIFICATIONS:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDCC: Equipped\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSOUND: Tsunami2\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePROTOTYPE MANUFACTURER: EMD\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAxles: 6\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLIGHTED: LED Lighting\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMinimum Age Recommendation: 14 years\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIs Assembly Required: No\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Athearn Genesis","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":43414609002709,"sku":"ATHG75840","price":305.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0520\/1972\/4454\/products\/athearn-genesis-g75840-ho-scale-emd-sd70-ace-diesel-d-rgw-heritage-union-pacific-up-1989-dcc-sound.jpg?v=1659459570","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterosehobbies.com\/products\/athearn-genesis-g75840-ho-scale-emd-sd70-ace-diesel-d-rgw-heritage-union-pacific-up-1989-dcc-sound","provider":"White Rose Hobbies","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
