Sale Kato 176-4374 N Union Pacific NW2 Diesel #1029 – Your Source for Gaming Essentials Trains

Description

This is Kato 176-4374 N NW2 UP #1029. EMD NW2 Union Pacific #1029. The EMD NW2 is a 1,000 horsepower yard switcher, its distinctive twin-stack profile and short radiator creating a distinctive silhouette. Perhaps ironic, considering its 1000 horsepower engine, the N in NW2 stood for nine hundred horsepower, with the W designating that it was a welded frame locomotive, instead of a cast frame. The Road of the Streamliners lettering was used on the UP NW2s between 1948 and 1959; an advertisement for the UPs passenger service.

Its key features are:
Equipped with body mounted KATO magnetic knuckle couplers
Features directional Golden White LED headlights and illuminated preprinted numberboards
Sophisticated lightpiping keeps the visible cab interior free of lighting equipment
Interior cab can be populated with N scale figures from our N Yard Crew Day/Night set, #24-270
Locomotive is DCC friendly, able to take drop in decoders such as Digitrax DN123K3 or Train Control Systems K3D3
