GE U28C - Master(R) Gold -- CR #6530

This detailed Atlas HO Scale Master Gold GE U28C is modeled after diesels developed in 1966, and provided a 300 horsepower increase over its predecessor, the U25C. Built on a larger frame than the U25C, the model also incorporated other improvements, such as new floating bolster trucks. The longer frame also allowed space for a steam generator for passenger service; Only Santa Fe purchased the passenger variant U28CG. This Atlas model features a five-pole, skew-wound motor with dual flywheels, directional LED lighting, Accumate(R) magnetic knuckle couplers, accurate decoration and roadname-appropriate body details. This replica comes equipped with a dual-mode ESU LokSound sound and DCC decoder for operation on DCC and DC layouts (with limited sound capabilities on in DC operation). The U28C is one of many Atlas HO Scale locomotives.
