KAT1765518S, Kato USA - EMD SD80MAC - Sound and DCC - N scale

Norfolk Southern #7227 (black, white, Dashed Sill Stripe). This Kato EMD SD80MAC is based on units in service the 1990s. Weighing in at more than 400,000 pounds and with a length in excess of 80 feet and massive 5,000 horsepower tractive effort, the SD80MAC is one of the heaviest, longest, and most powerful single diesel locomotives in the world. Conrail was the first railroad to receive the SD80MAC in early 1996. As it would turn out, Conrail would be the only original buyer of this locomotive, even purchasing both of the demonstrator units. CSX and Norfolk Southern have since acquired these units, using them primarily in coal service. This ready-to-run, standard DC diesel features a five-pole motor with dual flywheels, directional LED headlights, highly detailed body, great decoration and Kato knuckle couplers. These locomotives will be at home on the head end of your railroad's 1990s and later coal trains. This locomotive has a factory-installed sound and DCC decoder for use on DCC layouts. The EMD SD80MAC is one of many Kato N Scale locomotives.
