These six-axle, 4,000 hp engines are still in service today in North America.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp align=\"justify\"\u003eThe 4,000hp Dash 8-40CW was produced by General Electric between 1989 and 1993 as a follow-up to the successful Dash 8-40C 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.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"story\"\u003e\n\u003cp align=\"justify\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eUpgraded Features (2024 or Later):\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMetal Couplers\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eImproved headlight\/ditchlight color and brightness\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIndependently controlled lit number boards\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIndependently controlled lit marker lights (for appropriate road names)\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eImproved windshield glazing\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eEtched metal windshield wipers\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNew cab side without sunshade mount track (for appropriate road names)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp align=\"justify\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFeatures:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDitch lights\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNumber boards, sand fill hatch, and marker lights where appropriate by railroad (8-40CW only)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRealistic die-cast underframe\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFactory-equipped with AccuMate® knuckle couplers\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCoupler pocket designed to accept AccuMate® Proto-couplers\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHighly detailed coupler cut bars\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMultiple unit hoses and trainline hoses\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFive-pole skewed armature motor with dual flywheels for optimum performance at all speeds\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSeparately-installed scale windshield wipers, metal grab irons and fine scale handrails\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDirectional lighting\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePainted crew members\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSnowplow and piping on trucks\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRecommended minimum radius: 22”\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAtlas Master™ Series Gold Additional Features:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSupports all DCC-programming modes\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFlexible mapping of function keys F0 to F31 .\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFollows all NMRA DCC standards and recommended practices.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eESU LokSound Functionality Features:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOver 20 sound effects are available, including engine start-up and shutdown, prime mover sounds through all eight notches, bell, air horn, air compressor, dynamic brakes and more.\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThere are 16 user-selectable horns, 2 user-selectable bells, and 2 user-selectable synchronized brake squeals.\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eManual and Automatic Notching modes with the ability to change modes ”on the fly” are provided for true realism.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Model Train Warehouse","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52031445336384,"sku":"atl10004201","price":219.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0728\/7645\/8304\/files\/s-l1600.webp?v=1779338572","url":"https:\/\/www.newenglanddukes.com\/zh\/products\/atlas-ho-providence-worcester-4052-g-w-ge-8-40c-dcc-sound-10004201","provider":"New England Dukes","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
