Master Line Gold Series Locomotive

First built in the 1980's by General Electric, the Dash 8-40C diesel locomotives were identified by an enlarged exhaust stack and the mounting of the dynamic brake grids in a square-like unit behind the cab, which housed an enlarged equipment blower fan. These six-axle, 4,000 hp engines are still in service today.

Features include realistic die-cast underframe; factory-equipped with AccuMate knuckle couplers; highly detailed coupler cut bars; multiple unit hoses and trainline hoses; five-pole skewed armature motor with dual flywheels for optimum performance at all speeds; separately installed scale windshield wipers, metal grab irons and fine-scale handrails; directional lighting; painted crew members; snowplow and piping on trucks; recommended minimum radus 22".

As a Master Gold locomotive, also featured is the Electronic Dual-Mode Decoder that allows the loco to run in DCC or traditional DC.

Also included is the QSI Quantum System Features including dual speaker system, authentic diesel engine sounds, squealing brakes, doppler effect; air let-off in neutral; coupler impact sounds when operated in DCC, helper mode that mutes the whistle and bell for double heading, and more!
