Remarks & Notes

Société Nationale Industrielle et Minière (SNIM) SD70ACs CC-122 is one of 7-units produced and delivered for this North African railroad that hauls Iron Ore through the countries of Mauritania and Western Sahara. The SD70ACs has a massive set of sand/ air filtration systems around the locomotive and a unique set of plows to clear the railroad of the fine desert sand. Note the smaller fuel tank and marker light details as well. The Saudi Arabia Railway is another road operating this class of locomotive. Proudly built by employees of Progress Rail Locomotive Assembly plant in Muncie, IN. Brass scale models are planned from Overland Models, Inc.

Do you ever get the feeling as a model railroader, that you just might be creating something not "prototypical?" Same here.
