Dash 8-40CW diesel locomotives:
The 4,000hp Dash 8-40CW was produced by General Electric between 1989 and
1993 as a follow-up to the successful Dash8-40C locomotive. The most
distinguishing feature of this model was the introduction of GE’s version
of the wide-nose “North American Safety Cab.” This style of cab would
become a common sight on railroads across the country. Four major railroads
purchased the Dash 8-40CW in fairly large quantities, including Conrail,
CSX, Santa Fe and Union Pacific. Most of these units are still in regular
mainline and heavy-haul freight service today. Due to various mergers, they
can also be seen operating for new owners Norfolk Southern and BNSF.

- -NEW! Ditch lights
- -Number boards, sand fill hatch, and marker lights where appropriate by

HO Coalveyor
New Road Names & Road Numbers!
(Model from previous run shown)
Built in the 1980's by ACF®, the Coalveyor Bathtub Gondola operated in unit
train service to deliver coal to power plants.
These cars were most often lettered for the utility companies that leased
and purchased them. Many are still in service today.
By the year 2000, most Coalveyors had been in daily unit train service for
nearly 20 years, and many continue on in this service
today. However, several owners had begun selling off their fleets to
smaller leasing companies and railroads. Some remained in unit coal train
service, while others were placed in service hauling scrap material,
construction debris, and other refuse. As a
result of this, Coalveyors can now also be found in general freight service
throughout the country. Our offering of AEX, DLWR and MRMX represents a few
of the companies operating these “scrap service” cars today.
FEATURES INCLUDE:
- - Die-cast chassis
- - Ready-to-run
- - Interior bracing
- - Removable coal load
- - AccuMate® couplers
- - Brake detail
- - 100 ton roller-bearing trucks
- - Fine scale wheels
- - Accurate painting and printing
