Atlas Master HO 10003832 Gold Series DCC/ESU Loksound Equipped ALCO S-4 Locomotive CP Rail #7117

Alco introduced the S-4 in 1950. The S-4, like the earlier S-2, was a 1000 horsepower switcher. Some 636 S-4’s were built for North American railroads. The primary quick spotting difference between the S-1/S-2 and the S-3/S-4 can be seen in the trucks. The S-1/S-2 has Blunt trucks, while the S-3/S-4 has AAR-style trucks. The versatility of the S-2’s and S-4’s were evidenced by their service in mainline railroads, shortlines,
and industrials.

• Newly tooled with improved cab design
• 5-pole skewed armature motor for reliable operation
• Dual-flywheels for maximum performance at all speeds
• Factory-equipped with AccuMate knuckle couplers

**Lombard Hobbies Recommendation - As modelers ourselves we highly recommend ONLY running DCC on DCC systems and DC on DC systems, regardless of 'Dual-Mode' capability. This gives optimum performance and safeguards the unit from possible damage from running on a different system than originally intended and from any inexperienced operator errors.
