Description

This is MTH 30-20071-1 O SW1500 w/PS2, NASA. SW1500 switcher diesel engine w/Proto-Sound 3.0 – NASA. The birth of the SW1 in January 1939 was a historic moment for the Electro-Motive Corporation. The tiny switcher (S for six hundred horsepower, W for welded frame) was EMC’s first truly mass-produced loco, the first with Electro-Motive’s own electrical gear, and the first mass-produced engine powered by the 567 diesel motor – which would become the backbone of first-generation American diesel power. Popular with railroads large and small, the SW1 stayed in production for 15 years, and many remained in service for three or more decades.

Returning in 2011, our RailKing Scale SW1500 has everything you’d want in a switcher: front and rear remote Proto-Couplers, smooth performance at any speed down to 3 scale miles per hour, dual-motor power, and authentic EMD sounds.
