Progress Rail is proud to offer the EMD® Joule series of fully battery-powered locomotives, including the SD70J-BB model boasting more than double the energy storage of competing products.
Learn MoreThe EMD® 22L locomotive, which is currently operating in Tasmania, was custom engineered for Australia’s lighter axle load branch lines, and offers a range of 15.75 to 18 TAL. It integrates the Cat® 3512C HD engine, providing exceptional power and fuel efficiency, and a microprocessor control system.
Learn MoreThe EMD® GT-Series locomotive platform includes GT38AC, GT42AC and GT46AC models. These locomotives integrate EMD® 710-Series engines together with AC traction technology to provide superior efficiency and performance for a broad range of operations. We pioneered development of AC traction for heavy haul diesel-electric locomotives, and today thousands of EMD® AC locomotives operate worldwide providing enhanced adhesion performance and lower life cycle costs.

The platform also features a redesigned crashworthy cab structure and fuel tank for operator safety, along with features for enhanced ergonomics and comfort. Cabs are ergonomically designed to meet the visibility requirements for 5th percentile and 95th percentile people.
Learn MoreBased on the EMD® SD70ACe locomotive, with thousands operating in heavy-haul service across the globe, the EMD® SD70ACS model is specially designed for railroads operating in harsh climatic conditions and temperatures up to +50 o C. Through integration of custom design features and technologies, the SD70ACS delivers safety and performance for challenging desert service including sand and extreme heat.
Learn MoreThe SD70ACe locomotive was introduced in 2005 for heavy-haul freight applications worldwide. This powerful and efficient locomotive integrates the world-class reliability of the EMD 710 engine, EM2000 microprocessor control system and AC traction.
Learn MoreThe EMD® SD70ACe-BB Locomotive was custom designed for Brazil’s uniquely challenging operating environment. This eight-axle, meter-gauge locomotive provides increased tractive effort and capacity to haul more freight. It is also equipped with the EMD® 710 engine, AC traction and a cab custom designed for operator safety and comfort.
Learn MoreProgress Rail heard very clearly from our railroad customers that reliability and efficiency drive total cost of ownership. With that we engineered the SD70ACe-T4 locomotive to reduce NOx by an additional 80 percent and particulates by 70 percent—while delivering world-class fuel efficiency—and the leading reliability, maintainability and safety the railroads expect from EMD locomotives.
