N P3 ES44AC Diesel NS #8130/blk DC/DCC
Broadway Limited is excited to release its most
modern diesel locomotive ever — The GE ES44AC. The Evolution Series
4400HP DC Traction locomotive is part of GE Transportation Systems line
of diesel locomotives that were built to meet the EPAs 2005 Tier 2
locomotive emissions standards.
All Evolution Series locomotives delivered to the North American market
are six axle locomotives equipped with Nathan-Airchime K5HL-R2
Evolution airhorns. The GE ES44AC is still in use today serving the
entire nation through a variety of hauling tasks including traffic
resulting from the Ethanol mandate. CSX has some 200 units on or coming
onto its roster, while Iowa Interstate ordered 14 units. Norfolk
Southern purchased 24 units, receiving the first of its allotment in
2008.
This spectacularly detailed modern diesel will come equipped with our
cutting edge Paragon3 Sound and control system — yet
another way that Broadway Limited leads the pack in model railroading
technology.
