Description

The N Scale Broadway Limited EMD SD70ACe is patterned after one of the mostpopular EMD diesels of the 2000s. The SD70ACe is the successor to the olderSD70MAC. Built from 2004 to 2014 in the United States, the SD70ACe wasoriginally designed to comply with EPA Tier 2 locomotive emissionsregulations. Beginning in 2012, newly built SD70ACes were EPA Tier 3compliant. SD70ACes are equipped with EMD's 16-710-G3C-T2 prime mover,rated at 4,300 horsepower (3,200 kW). Later Tier 3 models are rated at4,500 horsepower (3,400 kW). The SD70ACe uses the cab design of late-modelSD90MAC-H units, which uses rectangular window glass and is externallydifferent from the two cab variations used on earlier SD70M and SD70MACunits. In 2008, EMD standardized the isolated cab on subsequent SD70ACesafter non-isolated cab units were restricted from leading on BNSF Railwaydue to excessive cab vibration.
This Stealth Series no-sound/DCC-ready model operates on DC out of the box,or a modeler can easily install their DCC decoder of choice. Out of thebox, front and rear lights are directional, and other lights are always ONwith track power. Additionally some lighting functions may be missingdepending on selected aftermarket decoder the modeler installs.

It also features abuilt-in speaker so you won't have to add one later. Other features includea heavy die cast chassis and select roadname-specific details. Its wheelsare profiled to operate on Code 55 and larger rail and curves of 9-3/4"radius but larger curves are recommended. The EMD SD70ACe is one of many Broadway Limited N Scalelocomotives.

Preorders: Frequently Asked Questions

What is preordering and why would I want to do that?

In the model railroading world, most products are made in limited runs. Manufacturers no longer produce large quantities to sit in warehouses. Instead, they announce new items and set a preorder deadline. After that date, production is based largely on the number of reservations received.

Preordering through Model Train Stuff guarantees your spot in line for these limited releases. When the products arrive, orders are filled in the order they were placed. The earlier you preorder, the better your chance of getting your items, even if there are shipping delays or shortfalls from the manufacturer.

Preordering is as easy as 1-2-3!
  1. Preordering is available on any item with the word "Preorder" as the first word in the product title.
  2. We will email your invoice approximately 30-45 days before your preorder items land at the warehouse. With the interactive invoice you can select your preferred shipping method and pay the balance of your order right online!
  3. We'll ship you your preorder once your invoice is paid online. 

How can I place a preorder?

When will I be charged for my preorder?
