GE Dash 8-40CM - Standard DC -- Canadian National #2415 (black, white, red, Large Noodle Logo)

The Rapido Trains HO Scale GE Dash 8-40CM is based on units introduced in 1990 and operated in service into the 2020s. A total of 55 units were built for Canadian National (2400-2454) and 26 units for BC Rail (4601-4626). A further three locomotives (401-403) were built for the QNSL in March 1994. With CN's purchase of BC Rail came the fleet of Dash 8s, which would see them released into general service across North America. It was not uncommon to see BC Rail Dash 8s operating everywhere on CN's expanded North American network, and even all the way to Florida and Texas. The model features prototypically accurate details including body type with correct class detailing, roadname-specific detailing, roadname-specific body style, etched-metal grilles and details, full underbody details, full cab interior, directional headlights and working ditch and rock lights. The smooth-running drive features a smooth coreless motor with dual flywheels and the model comes equipped with magnetic knuckle couplers. This model is DCC ready for easy conversion. The GE Dash 8-40CM is part of the line of Rapido Trains HO Scale locomotives.
