Description
Packing 5,000 horsepower and a 20-cylinder engine, the SD80MAC was a regular coal hauler across Pennsylvania, and is now here in CSX livery for Train Simulator.
Thirty units were built by EMD for Conrail between 1995 and 1996 and were the first diesel locomotives to use a 20-cylinder engine since EMD’s SD45 and SD45-2 models. Their huge motive power and 75mph (121 km/h) top speed also made them slightly more powerful than GE’s EVO series, making them ideal candidates for the heavy coal trains of Pennsylvania.
The SD80MAC was also fitted with recessed red marker lights in the nose, a feature unique to Conrail locomotives and something that remained when Conrail was split up; 17 locomotives were taken on by Norfolk Southern and 13 by CSX. As with most modern era EMD units, the Class was also fitted with electronic display screens for instrument readouts and the usual EMD dynamic braking system.
The EMD SD80MAC for Train Simulator is seen as it operates today for CSX in their recent YN3 scheme. Detailing features include step lights, cab lights, multi-function displays, heavy braking system/train brake control and in-cab signalling that can be used on the NEC: New York-New Haven route. Also included with the locomotive are CSX coal hoppers.
The locomotive is also Quick Drive compatible, giving you the freedom to drive the CSX SD80MAC on any Quick Drive enabled route for Train Simulator, such as those available through Steam. Also included are scenarios specifically for the Norfolk Southern Coal District route (available separately and required to play these scenarios).
More scenarios are available on Steam Workshop online and in-game. Train Simulator’s Steam Workshop scenarios are free and easy to download, adding many more hours of exciting gameplay. With scenarios being added daily, why don’t you check it out now!

Save your money, and get the CSX 6000 instead. I wound up swapping all the scenarios I had with this loco for the CSX 6000 Loco that has brakes that work properly. Nice loco. Good sounds, great looking cab, and

To start I do love this locomotive! It has bright headlights, accurate design, Nicely made cab interior and CSX coal cars. All CSX SD80MACs are Ex-Conrail so the engine's physical body shape is accurate. The ditch

I would say to get this loco in a sale but it's up to you if you like CSX/American trains. Otherwise, save up your money and buy a AC6000CW or the 'Genset'. The reasons why I wouldn't recommend to get this loco is the

It's a ok locomotive. You can't play with the horn so to speak, brakes are a little touchy also. But overall nice sounds. And only got it for $10, so it wasn't a total loss.

Great Locomotive would definitely recommend this Unit.Being a Retired Conrail Conductor,brakeman,hump master i'll say every inch of this unit is pin point accurate. A lot of people think or believe the SD80Mac was a

*Edit 11/8/17* Having just driven this loco in QD I can tell you it works fine. I've just dragged 100 gondella's in the snow and rain to Bailey mine and it did. The problem lies with the second scenario you get off DTG
