This Atlas model features details unique to each roadname and working front and/or rear ditch lights if appropriate. Other features include a five-pole motor with dual flywheels, directional LED lighting, all-metal magnetic knuckle couplers, accurate decoration and roadname-appropriate body details. This GE DASH 8-40C replica comes equipped with a dual-mode ESU LokSound Select sound and DCC decoder with Full Throttle effects for operation on DCC and DC layouts (with limited sound capabilities on in DC operation).
