GE ES44ACE USR Double Stack (24+4 Cars)

United States Railways with 24 Double Stack Containers and 2+2 Engines

The Evolution Series is a line of diesel locomotives built by GE Transportation Systems (now owned by Wabtec), initially designed to meet the U.S. EPA's Tier 2 locomotive emissions standards that took effect in 2005. The first pre-production units were built in 2003. Evolution Series locomotives are equipped with either AC or DC traction motors, depending on the customer's preference. All are powered by the GE GEVO engine.

After the nationalisation of private freight operators in USA, the new management requested General Electric to retrofit existing ES44AC into diesel-electric hybrid locomotive, as USR decided to electrify all mainlines in USA. As a result of this request, ES44ACE is born. The biggest change of ACE is the addition of pantograph, giving the locomotive overhead wire support and the extra compartment behind the cabin, giving it the nickname 'Bison'. Extra space for electrical components was stored in this new section as well as old restroom for the crew was modified to keep electronic components that are added. Locomotive retains its diesel engine function by keeping the prime-mover for non-electrified tracks.

United States Railways is created by the federal government following the series of derailments and accident, including one with the nuclear waste spillage in Ohio, causing the evacuation multiple towns and rendering a massive landmass unhabitable for hundreds of years. The decision of nationalization was given with biparty support and all trackage, as well rolling stocks and operations were taken over by the federal government, and this new organisation was named 'United States Railways', or USR in short.

During the merge, Swiss Federal Railways was contracted as a supervisor to ensure smoothness of operations and as a result USR, is based on SBB model. It is a private entity, controlled by a board of members, CEO and all stocks of the company is owned by the federal government itself.

USR also have 4 separate branches; USR-Freight - handling all freight operations, USR-Passenger - handling all passenger lines taken over from Amtrak, USR-Infrastructure - responsible division of all tracks and maintenance facilities, and USR-Real Estate - handling station buildings, lands and future acquisition of land and properties.

As a result of this merge, a new labour law was also passed, requiring all employees to be part of a union, engineers can operate maximum 6 hours a day, removing the need to stay inside locomotives during off-work hours. PSR is also banned, locking train length maximum 400m or 1300ft.

- USR version of ES44ACE 'Bison'
- 2 engines consist on forward motion, 2 if train is reversed
- Maxi IV double stack container cars, 24 units long.
- Container cars change order and repaint based on cargo type, that is possible via TrailerVariation mod by Access Violation. Container cars were also made by Nostrix, as a result of previous collab on DDAX.
- Directional headlights with Additive Shader.
- 1:1 scale, fits under R2 USA wires. .


- All engines share the same texture to improve your RAM performance.
- The final load on RAM should be around 12MB, if you already have containers from previous release.
