Kato HO Southern Pacific GE C44-9W SP #8104 DCC Ready 37-6630

Prototype Info:

The headliner of GE’s 1993 freight locomotive line was the 6 motor, 4400hp C44-9W “Dash 9.” Slightly longer than its predecessors at 73 feet, 2 inches, the C44-9W used a new HiAd, bolsterless low-weight truck that was designed for better grip on the rails no matter the weather. A split cooling system lowered engine temperatures and fuel consumption as well, granting these locomotives a longer operation life and lower overhead costs.

Features:
Precisely engineered weight distribution for more pulling power on steep grades and long trains
Lighted ditch lights in the high mount position for SP and UP (ex-SP) units
Prototypical Late Hi-Adhesion trucks
DCC and Sound friendly construction with a speaker housing in the fuel tank and standard 8 pin DCC plug
