New CITIRAIL/CREX ES44AC's
Author: NWRailfan

Hello all I am seeing if anyone has info on these new units being released from Erie. I saw a photo this morning posted on Overland Models website, with a picture if anyone is interested, and hadn't heard about these being built yet. So how many and who are they leased to and for how long? Thanks

Overland even had a picture of one of the first ever ac locomotive to be made for cn. Only it shows the front of the es44ac. Does anyone have specifications for the new cn es44ac's for example do they have steerable trucks or hiads?

I would think these would look on the outside like the last order of ES44DC's exept AC traction.

They are being delivered with the hi-ad roller blade trucks. No radials for CN.
