HO 44 Ton Switcher Loco Amtrak #1000 (BAC68205)

HO Scale Amtrak 44-Ton Switcher Locomotive No. 1000 is a compact General Electric switcher built for yard work and short-line duties on an HO layout. This model captures the authentic 44-ton profile in Amtrak livery and comes equipped with a dual‑mode Soundtraxx Tsunami2 decoder, delivering lifelike engine sounds, horn options, bells, and cab chatter for engaging switching sessions.

Beyond the sound, the locomotive features Hyperlight headlights on both ends for Rule 17 operation, all‑wheel drive for steady pulling, and magnetically operated E‑Z Mate II couplers on both ends, along with separately applied details like handrails and windshield wipers. The Tsunami2 system offers a rich array of prime mover choices, more than 40 horn options, bells, and dynamic effects such as Dynamic Digital Exhaust that responds to grade changes. It’s designed to run best on 18-inch‑radius curves or larger and measures about 4.9 inches long, with detailed, painted graphics to bring Amtrak heritage to your railroad.
