DUFORD MODEL WORKS SPECIAL!
Kato N 176-8944-LS-DMW with DCC/ESU LokSound V5 GE ES44AC GEVO Locomotive Canadian Pacific #8701
Prototype Information:
The ES 'Evolution Series' of locomotives are built by GE Transportation Systems and designed to meet the U.S. EPA’s Tier 2 locomotive emissions standards that took effect in 2005. These Evolution Series locomotives are equipped with AC traction motors and are powered by a newly designed 'GEVO-12' 12 cylinder engine that produces the same power as the 16 cylinder AC4400CW, but with fewer emissions and greater fuel economy. It also carries a redesigned air-to-air dual-fan heat exchanger, which gives it its distinct oversized radiator; a common spotting feature for these new locomotives.
FULLY LOADED by Duford Model Works exclusively for Lombard Hobbies:
Model Features:
- Powerful five-pole KATO motor with dual brass flywheels
- Directional Headlight and illuminated, preprinted numberboards
- Illuminated ditch lights
- Kato magnetic knuckle coupler
- Exclusive DCC/ESU LokSound V5 model from Duford Models**
**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.
