Description

The ACE 3000 was a prototype modern 4-4-4-2 coal-burning steam locomotive which was designed in the late 1970's to early '80's by Ross Rowland, L. D. Porta, and a design team from the American Coal Enterprises company.

The purpose of this project was to offer railroads an alternative fuel to the steeply increasing cost of diesel fuel.

Although it was proposed to several railroads, major construction never began. After public interest died, the project was cancelled due to Trouble on Curves and Wheel Slip Problems.

It went as far as running lightly modified former Chesapeake & Ohio 4-8-4 "Greenbrier" 614 to collect fresh data on steam locomotive performance potential.

I'm pretty sure that despite it being thought up by a company called American COAL Enterprises, the second engine would've likely been an oil tender, since a lot of cab forwards burned oil, and that likely would've been the case for this.

I tried making a Chessie reskin, but the logo is still flipped on one side, even with the updated UV.
