The set pairs a Siemens SC-44 Charger locomotive with a roster of Pacific Surfliner Bi-Level coaches in the blue and silver livery, reflecting the real route that runs along the Southern California coastline. Based on Kato's SC-44 Charger design, the locomotive features a short-nose cowl and a destination marking, with new molding and authentic detailing to mirror the prototype. An interior lighting kit can be added to illuminate the engine compartment for extra realism, and the arrangement supports push-pull operation with directional headlights and preprinted number boards.\u003c\/p\u003e\n \u003cp\u003eDesigned for DCC-equipped layouts, the set delivers reliable performance with a five-pole motor, all-wheel electrical pickup, and blackened wheels, plus body-mounted magnetic knuckle couplers for smooth coupling. The locomotives are DCC-friendly and provide space for a speaker in the fuel tank, with optional lighting kits and decoders available to light interiors and the engine bay. The Bi-Level coaches feature directional lighting for push-pull operation, an on\/off switch for mid-train operation, and compatibility with add-on lighting and decoders, while the hybrid steel\/plastic wheels ensure smooth running and consistent pickup across the eight-unit set. This configuration makes it ideal for recreating the Pacific Surfliner corridor on modern layouts.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Kato (KAT)","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47866340311092,"sku":"KAT106-9010","price":420.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0597\/6653\/8292\/files\/KAT106-9010.jpg?v=1780609233","url":"https:\/\/nankinhobby.com\/products\/kat106-9010","provider":"Nankin Hobby","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
