EMD DDA40X w/ Double Stacks (42Cars)

The EMD DDA40X is a 6,600 hp (4,943 kW) D-D locomotive, built from 1969 to 1971 exclusively for the Union Pacific Railroad.[1] It is the most powerful diesel-electric locomotive model ever built on a single frame, having two 16-645E3A diesel prime movers.[2] Union Pacific has marked DD40X on the cab exteriors, while EMD literature inconsistently refers to this model as either DD-40X or DDA40X.[3] UP's DDA40X locomotives were the ultimate culmination of the company's experiments with extremely powerful locomotives that began with its gas turbine-electric locomotives and DD35s.[4] For manufacturer EMD, the construction of the world's most powerful single frame locomotive was a sign of the company's dominance of the North American diesel locomotive market, with only GE Transportation an equal competitor.

DDA40X was a three way collaboration between me, Evametry and Nostrix, for the release of Railway 2 last year. After with a slight delay of 6ish months, it's finally out on Workshop.

- ElectroMotive DDA40X Gas turbine locomotive, made by Evametry
- 1:1 true scale, Maxi IV double stack containers, made by Nostrix
- Random Trailer Variant import and finalisation, by REV0.



Since DDA40X is accurately made and features first 1:1 scaled double stacks on Workshop, it is compatible with Railway 2 networks, if your train tracks feature overhead wires.

This is a super long train, therefore use with caution. Dummy variant will be released later.
