MTH 30-2676-1 Erie E-8AA Diesel Engine Set w/Proto-Sound 2.0 #828/822 VG/Box

This is an MTH 30-2676-1 E-8 AA Diesel Engine Set with Proto-Sound 2.0, Cab #'s: 828 & 822. The E-8 was one of the most popular of the E-series locomotives built by EMD in the early 1950s. The 6,750 h.p. E-8 A-B-A arrangement was known for pulling passenger trains on most major express routes at speeds up to 100 mph. This streamlined beauty was one of the last locomotives to sport the Bulldog nose look that EMD popularized a decade earlier. Unfortunately, a drastic decline in demand for passenger service in the '60s led to the abandonment of these fine diesels. During that time, there was a shift to more utilitarian general purpose locomotives, which went on to dominate the railroad landscape for two decades. Once again the E-8 returns to the RailKing line complete with all the big fun and excitement that this able handler of passenger trains provides. Each AA set is equipped with the awesome sounds and features of Proto-Soundr 2.0 for an operating experience unmatched by other O Gauge manufacturers. Experience realistic slow speed performance as you enter a passenger station thanks to the incredible realism of Proto-Speed ControlT. Activate the passenger station Proto-EffectsT to simulate the announcing of your train as it arrives. Marvel at the sounds of passengers coming and going. It's model railroading at its most fun. Did You Know? For an even more realistic consist, add a non-powered B unit to your AA set to achieve the traditional A-B-A diesel engine configuration. Features include Colorful Paint Scheme, Metal Chassis, Metal Wheels, Axles and Gears, Die-Cast Truck Sides, Pilots and Fuel Tank, (2) Precision Flywheel Equipped Motors, Intricately Detailed ABS Bodies, and (2) Remotely Controlled Proto-Couplers.
