N EMD GP38-2 Diesel Locomotive with Dynamic Brakes - Chessie System #4806 (BAC61752)

Chessie System GP38-2 Diesel Locomotive with Dynamic Brakes is a detailed HO-scale model designed to bring authentic power and appearance to a model railroad layout. It features a die-cast frame, a precision motor and flywheel drive for smooth operation, and a finely painted body with precision graphics. Front and rear magnetically operated E-Z Mate Mark II couplers provide reliable, prototype-like coupling on both ends.

Available in dynamic brake and non-dynamic brake versions to match prototype rosters, it features all-wheel drive for improved traction, illuminated number boards, and separately applied fine-scale handrails with see-through sideframes on the detailed trucks. Blackened metal wheels with RP25 contours enhance realism and tracking, and a factory-installed NMRA NEXT-18 socket supports optional decoder installation. It performs best on curves with a radius of 11.25 inches or larger.
