CSX SD40-3

Unread postby AmericanSteam » Wed Jul 07, 2021 9:41 pm

Has anyone thought about doing the CSX SD40-3 with the Admiral cabs?
Some details per WVNCrails here: http://www.wvncrails.org/sd40-3-csx-old ... otive.html
New cabs that can withstand crashes
• Heating and air conditioning systems
• New control system
• Positive Train Control technology
• Modernized starting systems

On the topic of performance, notable is that the improvements will yield rejuvenated 3,000-horsepower, six-axle locomotives for the fleet. The tractive power will increase from 86,000 to about 130,000 pounds, making it capable of doing the work of more modern, high-horsepower units in all types of freight service including intermodal and coal.

I never noticed that before. I guess I need stronger glasses. On special for the next 10 hours.
