These Evolution Series locomotives are equipped with AC traction motors and are powered by a newly designed “GEVO-12” 12 cylinder engine that produces the same power as the 16 cylinder AC4400CW, but with fewer emissions and greater fuel economy. It also carries a redesigned air-to-air dual-fan heat exchanger, which gives it its distinct “oversized” radiator; a common spotting feature for these new locomotives.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 10pt;\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"sectionTitle\"\u003e \u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"sectionTitle\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 10pt;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eES44DC\u003c\/strong\u003e: While the AC version has proven to be the overall most popular iteration of the “GEVO”, quite a few railroads elected to use the DC versions of these engines, including the BNSF Railway, Canadian National, and CSX.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"sectionTitle\"\u003e \u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"sectionTitle\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 10pt;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eES44C4\u003c\/strong\u003e: The C4 is a variant of the ES44AC, using an A1A-A1A wheel arrangement with an idler axle in the center of each truck vs. the all-wheel power of its ES44AC brethren.
