The China Railways HXN3 (EMD classification JT56ACe) is a 6000 horsepower (4.5 MW) diesel-electric locomotive produced by Electro-Motive Diesels designed for export to China. All JT56ACe locomotives use AC traction motor technology and utilize the EMD H-Engine as their prime mover. The locomotives are capable of meeting the EPA's Tier 2 emissions regulations.^[1]

In September 2005, the People's Republic of China announced an order for 300 JT56ACe locomotives. A portion of the locomotives will be assembled in kit form by China's own Dalian Locomotive Works.^[1]
