EMD SD40 Low Nose - Standard DC - Stealth - HO

This HO Scale Stealth Series EMD SD40 Low Nose from Broadway Limited is based on the six-axle diesel-electric locomotive built by General Motors. Between 1966 and 1972, GM built 1268 of these locomotives before introducing the new SD40-2.

This Stealth Series no-sound/DCC-ready model operates on DC out of the box, or a modeler can easily install their DCC decoder of choice. Out of the box, front and rear lights are directional, and other lights are always ON with track power. Additionally some lighting functions may be missing depending on selected aftermarket decoder the modeler installs. This model includes a 21-pin decoder socket so you can add your favorite DCC or sound decoder when you're ready. Other features include a heavy die cast chassis and select roadname-specific details. Its wheels are profiled to operate on Code 70 and larger rail and curves of 18" radius but larger curves are recommended. The EMD SD40 is one of many Broadway Limited HO Scale Paragon4 locomotives.
