Description
This Athearn HO F59PHI Northwestern Amtrak Multicolor Locomotive M2604 is a fantastic addition to any model railroad enthusiast's collection. With its light function and painted features, this pre-built locomotive is ready to go and perfect for those aged 12-16 years old. The unit type is a four-unit quantity and is made of plastic material, with a wheel configuration of Bo-Bo and a scale of 1:87. The locomotive is a replica of the Electro-Motive Diesel (EMD) and has a DC power type with an analog control system. It is designed for a two-rail system and has a corporate road name of Amtrak, with a theme of fantasy and a time period manufactured of 2000-2009. This locomotive weighs 2 lb and has a grade of C-8 Like New, making it an excellent purchase for collectors. Have 4 with same number; buy more than one at reduced price. All used on my layout sparingly insuring each ran smoothly with the lights working in forward and reverse. Each pulled 18 log loaded gondolas with no problems. Also pulled 9 Amtrak Superliners with no problems on grades. Fantastic engines for me to downsize my fleet at cost to find a forever home at these prices. Run like you see on U-tube [Engine Forward-Psgr Car-PC-PC-PC-Engine Backward] meaning no turnaround required. Thx much for looking!
