This is a Kato 37-6521 HO Scale Chicago & North Western EMD SD38-2 Diesel Locomotive w/DCC & Light #6652. The EMD SD38-2 was produced from November 1972 through June 1979. Capable of generating 2000 horsepower, the SD38-2 was essentially the same locomotive as the 4-axle GP38-2 while being built on the 6-axle SD40-2 frame. Although officially considered a medium road-switcher, the SD38-2 is frequently identified with its heavy duty in the steel industry. The locomotive has also been used in both mainline and yard duty by railroads such as the Union Pacific and Chicago & North Western when looking for extra tractive effort. These models are accurate to the roadname/engine number with regards to the fuel tank size, truck brake cylinders and dynamic/non-dynamic brake hatch. They also feature the precision detail and powerful five-pole motor with dual brass flywheels that KATO models are known for. Each SD38-2 is equipped with KATO magnetic knuckle coupler, 8-pin DCC socket and golden-white LED headlight. This one comes with DCC installed.
