## About This Content
Packing 5,000 horsepower and a 20-cylinder engine, the SD80MAC was a regular
coal hauler across Pennsylvania, and is now here in CSX livery for Train
Simulator.
Thirty units were built by EMD for Conrail between 1995 and 1996 and were the
first diesel locomotives to use a 20-cylinder engine since EMD’s SD45 and
SD45-2 models. Their huge motive power and 75mph (121 km/h) top speed also
made them slightly more powerful than GE’s EVO series, making them ideal
candidates for the heavy coal trains of Pennsylvania.
The SD80MAC was also fitted with recessed red marker lights in the nose, a
feature unique to Conrail locomotives and something that remained when Conrail
was split up; 17 locomotives were taken on by Norfolk Southern and 13 by CSX.
As with most modern era EMD units, the Class was also fitted with electronic
display screens for instrument readouts and the usual EMD dynamic braking
system.
The EMD SD80MAC for Train Simulator is seen as it operates today for CSX in
their recent YN3 scheme. Detailing features include step lights, cab lights,
multi-function displays, heavy braking system/train brake control and in-cab
signalling that can be used on the NEC: New York-New Haven route. Also
included with the locomotive are CSX coal hoppers.
The locomotive is also Quick Drive compatible, giving you the freedom to drive
the CSX SD80MAC on any Quick Drive enabled route for Train Simulator, such as
those available through Steam. Also included are scenarios specifically for
the Norfolk Southern Coal District route (available separately and required to
play these scenarios).
