International Railroad Discussion > AC44i with Hat (Brazil)Date: 03/24/17 20:14 AC44i with Hat (Brazil) Author: pedrop Hi, MRS railroad is adding a windscreen protection on the AC44i that looks like a hat. It is to protection from the sun and also from iron ore falling from the conveyor belts in the loading facilities. Today I met one of tham during a railfaning trip.

KG Date: 03/27/17 15:01 Re: AC44i with Hat (Brazil) Author: pedrop Some engineers are calling them "Donald Trump" because the protection looks like Trump's topet.
The engineers like because it helps to reduce the sun lights in the cab. kgmontreal Wrote: ------------------------------------------------------- > The modification is practical but not beautiful. > > KG Posted from Android Pedro Rezende Vespasiano MG, https://youtube.com/c/minasgeraisrailways1 Edited 1 time(s).
