Kato 1769005DCC N EMD F40PH Metrolink #800 w/ DCC Installed

Originally built and operated in Amtrak service, Metrolink #800 was purchased along with three other units with the intent of being repowered with a 3800 horsepower engine from an ex-UP SD60. While the project eventually was unsuccessful, #800 survived to be put into service pulling commuter equipment alongside MP36PH locomotives, carrying the striking blue and white of the Southern California passenger line.

Model features:

  • Equipped with body mounted KATO magnetic knuckle couplers.
  • directional Golden White LED headlights and illuminated preprinted number boards.
  • Equipped with shock absorber construction for smooth and prototypical motion on the track.
  • Powerful five pole motor with all wheel electrical pickup and blackened wheels.
  • Additional alternate snow plow piece included for tight radius operation.
  • New Commuter-version F40PH locomotives have retooled bodies with over-cab A/C units and illuminated ditch lights.

Each DCC locomotive has been rigorously tested for performance and has had a pre-installed DCC board installed to be truly ready-to-run on DCC.
