Description: Norfolk Southern Large Scale GE Dash 9 - Norfolk Southern #9512 This is a beautiful aristocraft dash 9 in Norfolk Southern with the original early paint scheme livery (not the bachmann version and also out of production). This engine has recently been serviced with a deep polishing and all axles and journals lubed and greased. Steel wheels indicate a well above average amount of runtime. Runs very smooth, lights are shiny, and smokes like a chimney. Comes with an extra set of hook and loop couplers and original box. This engine is perfect for running on your layout and has tremendous pulling power, and does not have the problems that the newer bachmann ones have. Note: this engine is missing the front and rear pilot handrails. You should be able to utilize a bachmann pair from the more recent NS release and will work fine, not sure if they are in stock or not. The awnings for the cab window have been separated and are located in a baggie, see pictures. Building on the success of the era-defining Dash 8 series, the General Electric-built Dash 9 is recognized as one of the most popular freight locomotives in modern history. Packing 4,400 horsepower, the Dash 9 has seen service with almost all class-one railroads, and can still be found leading priority road freights across North America. Don’t miss the opportunity to add this essential example of modern railroading to your Large Scale layout. Factory-equipped with DC control, the model features operating lights, exhaust smoke, and a plug-and-play circuit board for the addition of the control system of your choice. -advanced nonproprietary plug-and-play circuit board to accommodate the control system of your choice, including conventional DC power, NMRA/NEM DCC, and/or RC operation -1:29 scale, 45mm gauge -performs best on 10’ diameter curves or greater -two three-axle ball-bearing power trucks -two motors per truck with low amperage draw -operating diesel smoke unit -white LED directional headlights and ditch lights -lighted front number boards -interior cab lighting and interior cab detail -lighted porch, walkway, and step lights -solid-metal railings and lift rings -opening side windows -windshield wipers, see-through steps, and MU hose detailing -operating AAR knuckle couplers -extra weight for better performance -length: 32” I also have other NS dash 9’s, feel free to ask.
