Built for heavy mainline service, the SD70M combined the proven performance of EMD's 4,000-horsepower platform with a distinctive wide-nose safety cab and the reliability needed for transcontinental freight operations.\n    \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\n    Union Pacific 1979 carries the railroad's striking \"We Are One\" commemorative paint scheme, created to celebrate the diversity and unity of the Union Pacific workforce. The colorful design stands out dramatically from standard Union Pacific locomotive paint while still maintaining the presence of a contemporary road locomotive. The result is one of the most recognizable and photographed special-paint units operating today.\n    \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\n    Kato's all-new SD70M tooling faithfully captures the appearance of these locomotives, including the flat radiator configuration found on Union Pacific examples.
