UPDATE: I have redone this test with the actual ACS-64 which has been released by DTG. See the test and download my physics mod for the ACS-64 here: http://www.facebook.com/FanRailerMODS DESCRIPTION: Here are the two different acceleration profiles of the Amtrak Siemens ACS-64 (physics dropped into the existing AEM-7). First up from start to 4:50 is the boost mode (6400kW) profile. From 4:55 to the end is the continuous mode (5000kW) profile. Note that I have adjusted amp ratings to reflect tractive effort in kN (1 amp = 1 kN). You can see that the different acceleration profiles follow the tractive effort curves as seen here: http://www.mobility.siemens.com/mobility/global/SiteCollectionDocuments/en/rail-solutions/locomotives/customspecific-solutions/amtrak-acs64-en.pdf Note the difference in time it takes for the locomotive to accelerate the 8 car Amfleet train while in the different modes.
