It has the new EMD safety cab, similar to the SD70ACe cab, but with the “teardrop windshield”, much like the SD70ACe-T4. The SD70ACC has been rebuilt with AC traction motors, an AAR-style control stand, an electrical cabinet with Mitsubishi electronics, a new main alternator, and additional weight to increase the maximum weight to 432,000 ...
The following is a list of locomotives produced by the Electro-Motive Corporation (EMC), and its successors General Motors Electro-Motive Division (GM-EMD) and Electro-Motive Diesel (EMD). Streamlined power cars and early experimental locomotives
EMD introduced their new 710 engine in 1984 with the 60 Series locomotives (EMD SD60 and EMD GP60), the EMD 645 engine continued to be offered in certain models (such as the 50 Series) until 1988.

De Dietrich (Enterprise service) with driving cab containing EMD control stand, luggage compartment and passenger seating.

EMD Dash 2 modules. The EMD Dash 2 is a line of diesel-electric locomotives introduced by General Motors' Electro-Motive Division (EMD) on January 1, 1972. [1] Designations of these models were those of the former models with "-2" added (e.g., the SD40 was replaced by the SD40-2).
The series is an improvement and extension to the EMD SD70 series, which further is an extension to the EMD SD60. These locomotives were built as a response to General Electric's Dash 9-44CW, where as their cousins, the SD70MAC, were built in response to General Electric's AC4400CW. By increasing the output of the 16-710-G3 engine from 4,000 to ...
AAR control stand on an EMD DDA40X; Other EMD models are similar. A control stand is a diesel-electric locomotive subsystem which integrates engine functional controls and brake functional controls, [1] whereby all functional controls are "at hand" (within reach of the locomotive engineer from their customary seating position, facing forward at all times).
