## About This Content
Norfolk Southern’s distinctive SD60E rebuilt locomotive, featuring the
railroad’s unique “Crescent Cab,” is now available for Train Simulator.
Beginning in 2010, the Norfolk Southern began a program at its famed Juniata
(Altoona), Pennsylvania shops to upgrade its fleet of standard SD60 diesel
locomotives which dated to the mid-1980s. Along with numerous upgrades to
control, braking, and safety systems, the rebuilding process was keynoted by
application of a modernized “Crescent Cab” as designed by Norfolk Southern.
Powered by a 16-cylinder 710G3B engine and equipped with EM2000
microprocessors, the 4,000-horsepower SD60E can be found across the Norfolk
Southern system totting everything from intermodals to heavy coal trains.
Through 2017, more than 130 SD60E locomotives rolled out of Norfolk Southern’s
Juniata shops, including not only locomotives from the original NS fleet, but
additional units purchased second-hand (including ex-Union Pacific and ex-
Chicago & North Western locomotives).
Created by The LocoShop, the Norfolk Southern SD60E brings a modern and
powerful diesel to Train Simulator. The Train Simulator NS SD60E is dressed in
the railroad’s famed “Thoroughbred” livery and is provided in both clean and
snow-dressed liveries. And the locomotive features an authentic “Crescent Cab”
with realistic control and operating features.
As a bonus, the SD60E Add-On also includes Norfolk Southern’s noted “Top Gon”
rebuilt coal gondola, several thousand of which were rebuilt from older
hoppers beginning in 1991 and which will be ideal for coal duty on many Train
Simulator routes. Four scenarios featuring the NS SD60E and Top Gon cars in
service on the Norfolk Southern Coal District (route available separately) are
featured in the pack.
