Canadian Pacific SD70ACU #7029 pulling an enormous train of 6 tankers.

So you bought yourself an SD90MAC thinking it was gonna be a good endeavour? 6,000hp! What's there not to like? Well...aside from the terrible 16-265H engine that came with it.

The SD70ACU is an SD90MAC that has been rebuilt to replace its Siemens electrical components with equipment from Mitsubishi Electric as well as replace the original cab with one akin to their SD70ACe and SD70M-2 products to comply with the most recent FRA crashworthiness standards.
