Broadway Limited Imports EMD NW2 Switcher
-
Detail
These locomotives were manufactured by General Motors Electro-Motive Division of La Grange, Illinois. The locomotives were built between February 1939 to December 1949. EMD produced over 1,100 NW2s for North American Railroads.
The NW2's were EMD's new 12-cylinder, 567A prime mover. The NW2 was 44 feet long and equipped with the standard B-B truck arrangement. Typical distinguishing features of the NW2 switchers include two stacks in the middle of the hood, a half-height radiator grill on the front, no sand box on the front platform, no small louvers at the front corners, and the tops of the front cab windows are curved to match the curve of the roof.
In this production run, Broadway Limited is excited to bring several new paint schemes into the offerings. They have 10 prototypical paint schemes. Each model is equipped with the newest Paragon4 DC/DCC Sound and Control System. See below for more model features!
