Description
This detailed Atlas Master Gold N Scale EMD GP38-2 Phase II locomotive is based on the popular road switcher used by a number of railroads. The Dash 2 locomotive series, unveiled by EMD in 1972, featured significant changes, such as a solid-state, modular electrical control system and improved engine components designed to increase traction and reduce exhaust emissions. A reliable work-horse, the GP38-2 remains one of the most successful locomotives ever built. Most are still in service today. This N Scale GP38-2 Phase II replica is based on later-production locomotives and features a scale-speed motor with dual flywheels, low-friction mechanism, directional golden-white LED lighting, a light board that's easily changed replaced with DCC decoder when you're ready, accurate decoration and AccuMate(R) magnetic knuckle couplers. It's also sound-ready and comes equipped with a factory-installed speaker for easy sound conversion. This EMD GP38-2 Phase II is one of many Atlas N Scale locomotives.
