1. Introduction: What is the ES44AH? In the real world, the ES44AH is a type of GE Evolution Series locomotive. The "AH" suffix stands for "Aircraft (style) HEP" (Head End Power) or, more commonly in railfan terms, "Heavy" – referring to an additional 5,000-gallon fuel tank and larger cooling systems. CSX Transportation uses these primarily as heavy-haul road locomotives for coal, intermodal, and manifest freight.
