Kato USA Model Train Products EMD SD70ACe #1988 UP Heritage Missouri Kansas Texas N Scale Train
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. Locomotive #1988 is painted in traditional "Katy" Colors, with an alternating two-tone red scheme. It bears the road number 1988, the year the Katy became a part of the Union Pacific.
