Kato 176-4907 N Santa Fe SD40-2 Diesel Locomotive #5026 – Your Source for Gaming Essentials Trains

Description

This is Kato 1764907 N Sant Fe SD40-2 Diesel Locomotive #5026. The BN amassed a fleet of 827 SD40-2’s. They started out hauling coal trains out of Wyoming’s Powder River Basin and then started moving transcontinental freight between the West Coast and the Midwest. The CN – IC Repaint has generated interest from both the Canadian modelers and the U.S. modelers because of the IC (Illinois Central) markings on a CN locomotive. Built originally for the Burlington Northern, they were later purchased by the Illinois Central and are now owned by the Canadian National. They are used with other CN power on all types of freight service and are occasionally used in pool service with other roads.

These models will have the appearance after 1990, which will include ditch lights so the modeler can use them with their modern freights and in combination with other modern locos. Note the ditch lights on these units will be deck mounted, as was the prototype. They will also be equipped with anti-climbers.
