DUFORD MODEL WORKS SPECIAL!
Kato N 176-6412-LS-DMW with DCC/ESU LokSound V5 EMD SD70MAC Locomotive w/Nose Headlight Alaska Railroad ARR #4328 '100 Years Anniversary'
- Exclusive DCC/ESU LokSound V5 model from Duford Models**
- Equipped with body mounted KATO magnetic knuckle couplers.
- Directional Golden White LED headlights.
- Powerful five pole motor with all wheel electrical pickup and blackened wheels
**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.
Who is Duford Model Works? Well, if you know him then nothing else need be said. If you don’t then you should know DMW is Kelley Duford, the past Kato employed master DCC/Sound specialist who up to his new employment with ScaleTrains in 2021, was the sole person responsible for installing thousands of custom DCC/Sound packages in ALL Kato engines both HO & N scales. No one knows Kato and DCC better...and no one brings better value to your train dollar than Lombard Hobbies. Get these unique, limited quantity custom installs while you can!
These models will be equipped with all-wheel electrical pick-up and blackened metal wheels in trucks that replicate the HTCR Phase II trucks. (On the prototype, this truck evolved from the HT-C trucks found on the SD40-2 through SD60 and features radial steering capability). Additionally, the models will feature walkway-mounted, lighted ditch lights. Handrails will be made of a paintable material so modelers can easily add white end railings.
Prototype Information:
The General Motors Locomotive Group (GMLG) Electro-Motive Division (EMD) SD70MAC is one of the most common locomotives plying the rails today. Originally introduced in late 1993 with an order for the Burlington Northern, the production now totals over 900 units, exceeding the combined production of the SD80MAC and SD90MAC locomotives by over 300 units.
