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.
