  • A few video clips of the new CSX ST70AHs (SD70ACe-T4s) idling at the Agrock facility in Bowling Green, FL. Their prime mover is interesting because it sounds much different than the usual EMD SD70ACe prime mover and more like a GEVO. Thanks for watching, and if you like what you saw please be sure to like, comment, and subscribe!

    Sounds very reminiscent of a GE because of the four stroke engine, which I don’t mind. For those who worry about the sounds of EMD “dying out” you shouldn’t. There’s plenty of EMD rebuilds on the rails that will be sticking around for years to come.

      Coach Z yes they have a roots blower, not technically supercharged as it doesn’t add any boost it just keeps the flow of air going though the engine as a two stroke EMD creates no negative air flow to draw air into the cylinders

      I somewhat agree. However, with EMDs history with 2 strokes, I can assume that they'll get these 4 stroke diesels to pur just like the 710

    I hear hints of EMD and GE in this prime mover. But yes, it does sound more like a GE than an EMD compared to the previous generation EMD units. That's due in part to the fact that it's a four stroke engine instead of a two stroke. Different sound. That being said, I do like these and I wish CSX would buy more. 10 just isn't enough and it makes it hard to catch them. I've only ever caught one leading once.
