AEM-7/ALP-44
The AEM-7 is a twin-cab four-axle 7,000 hp (5.2 MW) B-B electric locomotive built by Electro-Motive Division (EMD) and ASEA between 1978–1988. The locomotive was a derivative of the Swedish SJ Rc4 designed for passenger service in the United States. The primary customer was Amtrak, which bought 54 for use on the Northeast Corridor and Keystone Corridor. Two commuter operators, MARC and SEPTA, also purchased locomotives.
As this is a double ended Electric Locomotive with MANY lights on both ends, this file has been set up with some function mapping that is non standard to the ESU defaults. Please check this mapping before doing any wiring. This mapping will work with the NEWEST run of Atlas AEM-7s with a 21MTC plug from the factory. These locos will be released fall of 2017.

Between 1978 and 1988, Amtrak acquired 65 AEM-7 electric locomotives to replace the aging GG1 and the less successful E60 locomotives in express passenger service. The compact four-axle locomotive was based on the Swedish ASEA Rc4 and had a power output of 5200 kW. With a top speed of 201 km/h, these locomotives were significantly faster than their European counterparts, which were also equipped with thyristor control. Starting in 1999, the original ASEA DC motors were replaced with AC motors from Alstom on 29 of the locomotives. These were then designated AEM-7AC. The SEPTA railroad company intended to modernize its eight AEM-7 locomotives, but only one, designated ALP-44, was ever completed. Two of the AEM-7 locomotives retired from Amtrak in 2018 were transferred to Caltrain in California.

Auto Bell:
Many modern locomotives have been fitted with an Automatic Bell that is triggered when the horn is blown. In MANY cases this cannot be bypassed. Before the FRA mandated this feature on new locomotives the bell was of course turned on and off separately. Some locomotives were delivered with a manual bell and have been converted to an automatic bell. This creates a challenge in sound file creation.
We realize that not every loco with a particular prime mover had this feature. As such we have built in an option to turn the feature on and off. We will set the default in the file to be what is most appropriate for the particular file.
To turn the feature OFF - Auto Bell OFF:
1. Remove the Auto bell sound slot from the function mapping chart
CV31 = 16, CV32 = 8
----------------------
CV311 = 4
2. Change the sound configuration of the Auto bell sound slot
CV31 = 16, CV32 = 1
----------------------
CV311 = 0
To turn the feature ON - Auto Bell ON:
1. ADD the Auto bell sound slot from the function mapping chart
CV31 = 16, CV32 = 8
----------------------
CV311 = 68
2. Change the sound configuration of the Auto bell sound slot
CV31 = 16, CV32 = 1
----------------------
CV311 = 1
Auto Bell Timer:
The Bell timer is amount of time the bell will play after the horn if the auto timer is active. The timer is broken down into 1/4 of a second increments.
CV169=4 - 1 Second
CV169=8 - 2 Seconds
CV169=12 - 3 Seconds
CV169=16 - 4 Seconds
CV169=20 - 5 Seconds - Default
