{"product_id":"rpi81517","title":"HO Amtrak NPCU Cabbage with DCC Phase V #90219 (RPI81517)","description":"\u003cdiv class=\"product_description\"\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe HO Amtrak NPCU Cabbage is a highly detailed model featuring DCC (Digital Command Control) for operation on model railroads. Part of a rebuild program initiated by Amtrak in the mid-1990s, these Non-Powered Control Units (NPCUs) were fashioned from retired F40PH locomotives, which saw their prime movers removed to create more functional spaces like baggage areas. This transformation allowed for 'push-pull' service, enabling train operations without needing to turn the locomotives at terminals. This model captures the essence of these unique 'Cabbages', which have become a familiar sight across various states in the U.S., serving regional trains effectively and efficiently.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe model comes equipped with various features such as operating ditch lights, strobe lights, and number boards, enhancing its realistic representation. It retains a 5-pole skew-wound motor and a smooth drive system, ensuring reliable performance. Additional details such as etched-metal radiator grilles, accurate marker lights, and separate handrails further contribute to its appeal among collectors and hobbyists.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Rapido Trains (RPI)","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47942784974900,"sku":"RPI81517","price":349.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0597\/6653\/8292\/files\/rpi81517_a0_add2o9rw.jpg?v=1782401334","url":"https:\/\/nankinhobby.com\/products\/rpi81517","provider":"Nankin Hobby","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
