Atlas Classic Silver Series N 40005493 DCC Ready Alco RSD4/5 Locomotive Santa Fe ATSF #2158

Between 1950 and 1956, ALCO offered a six-axle road-switcher which was more commonly found in the west. The RSD-4/5 was externally very similar to the RS-3, having six-axle trucks as an obvious spotting feature. They produced the same 1,600hp as an RS-3, but offered increased tractive effort due to the use of a larger generator. Many RSD-4/5s were assigned to operate in mountainous territory (with varying degrees of success) on the Southern Pacific, Santa Fe and the Utah Railway.

Features:

  • Golden-white LEDs
  • Directional lighting
  • Separately-applied painted handrails (where appropriate)
  • Blackened metal wheels
  • Scale Speed motor
  • Factory-installed AccuMate magnetic knuckle couplers
  • Accurate painting and printing

Additional Features:**

  • Atlas Silver Sound Ready models are equippedwith a speaker for easy conversion to sound withthe addition of a decoder.

**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.
