These Evolution Series locomotives are equipped with AC traction motors and are powered by a newly designed “GEVO-12” 12 cylinder engine that produces the same power as the 16 cylinder AC4400CW, but with fewer emissions and greater fuel economy. It also carries a redesigned air-to-air dual-fan heat exchanger, which gives it its distinct “oversized” radiator; a common spotting feature for these new locomotives.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003c\/div\u003e \u003cdiv class=\"sectionContent\"\u003e \u003cp class=\"content\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eES44DC: \u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp class=\"content\"\u003eWhile the AC version has proven to be the overall most popular iteration of the “GEVO”, quite a few railroads elected to use the DC versions of these engines, including the BNSF Railway, Canadian National, and CSX.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp class=\"content\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eES44C4: \u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp class=\"content\"\u003eThe C4 is a variant of the ES44AC, using an A1A-A1A wheel arrangement with an idler axle in the center of each truck vs. the all-wheel power of its ES44AC brethren. This gives the engines the stability benefits of a six axle truck while reducing the number of traction motors from 6 to 4.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cdiv class=\"sectionTitle\"\u003e \u003ch2\u003eModel Features:\u003c\/h2\u003e \u003c\/div\u003e \u003cdiv class=\"sectionContent\"\u003e \u003cul\u003e \u003cli class=\"content\"\u003eMultiple body styles to reflect different “as delivered” railroad specifications\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli class=\"content\"\u003ePowerful five-pole KATO motor with dual brass flywheels\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli class=\"content\"\u003eDirectional Headlight and illuminated, preprinted numberboards\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli class=\"content\"\u003eIlluminated ditch lights\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli class=\"content\"\u003eKato magnetic knuckle coupler\u003c\/li\u003e \u003c\/ul\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003e- Pre-installed with Digitrax DCC Decoder DN163K1C\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003c\/div\u003e \u003c\/div\u003e \u003cul\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e \u003cul\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e \u003cul\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e \u003cul\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e \u003cul\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e \u003cul\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e \u003cul\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e \u003cul\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e \u003cul data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Kato","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51323663089952,"sku":"KAT1768952DCC","price":153.49,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0993\/6722\/3584\/files\/00293029732LUW_gyib.jpg?v=1773126858","url":"https:\/\/scalemodelsupply.com\/products\/kat1768952dcc","provider":"ScaleModelSupply.com","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
