Description
Walthers Mainline HO 910-20724 DCC/LokSound V5 Equipped Alco RSC-2 Locomotive Union Pacific UP #1284
Add a unique branchline hauler to your roster with the WalthersMainline HO Scale Alco RSC2. Essentially a modified version of a four-axle Alco RS2, the RSC2's six axles spread the locomotive's weight more evenly along the lighter rail found on branch and secondary lines. First built in 1946, the 1,500 hp Alco RSC2 hauled freight and passenger trains and even served in yard switcher duty through the 1950s into the 1970s. Accurately sized, the WalthersMainline model captures the details of the RSC2, including its distinctive long trucks.

**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.
