Hey all!
Something quiet interesting popped up, Apparently NS EMD SD70ACe #1025 was equipped with helper service equipment, and the Ditch Lights were relocated to the pilot face because of the helper link box needing to be in that position
Its rather interesting though becuase the SD70ACu’s dont have Helper boxes on the platform and the SD40Es do… the SD40Es were kicked out of Helper Service and still retain the helper boxes, why would the SD70ACe be needed? size most likely (in my opinion).
Helperlink boxes were pulled off of the 40es and installed on the 70acus when they took over helper duty. Im guessing the same boxes were just re-used, but I don’t know.
That’s for that zug that really does help I had no idea the helperlink boxes were reused from the SD40Es on the SD70ACUs I just thought they were new ones
