Kato 176-4370 N Scale Burlington Northern NW2 Diesel Switcher #513 – Your Source for Gaming Essentials

Description

Here is a Kato 176-4370 N Scale Burlington Northern NW2 Diesel Switcher #513. The EMD NW2 is a 1,000 horsepower yard switcher, its distinctive twin-stack profile and short radiator creating a distinctive silhouette. Perhaps ironic, considering its 1000 horsepower engine, the N in NW2 stood for nine hundred horsepower, with the W designating that it was a welded frame locomotive, instead of a cast frame. Burlington Northerns NW2 fleet was carried over from equipment originally purchased by the Chicago, Burlington and Quincy, Great Northern, Northern Pacific, and the Spokane, Portland and Seattle Railways, with numbers 500-545, specifically, being ex-CB&Q locomotives.

Its key features are:
Equipped with body mounted KATO magnetic knuckle couplers
Features directional Golden White LED headlights and illuminated preprinted numberboards
Sophisticated lightpiping keeps the visible cab interior free of lighting equipment
Interior cab can be populated with N scale figures from our N Yard Crew Day/Night set, #24-270
Locomotive is DCC friendly, able to take drop in decoders such as Digitrax DN123K3 or Train Control Systems K3D3
