MTH ELECTRIC TRAINS

Priced at $1.25 million in 1984, the EMD SD60 roared onto the scene with its "Super Series" adhesion control and powerful 3,800 horsepower engine that generated up to 120,000 pounds of tractive effort. Derived from the popular SD45 series, the SD60, like its SD50 sibling added dynamic brakes in a new location - just behind the cab. This unique location for the brakes gave engine spotters an indentifying mark to distinguish SD50/60s from other SD engines. The only way to distinguish a 50 from a 60 however was to count doors. The SD60 had eight compared to the six found on the SD50. Joining the RailKing Scale lineup for the first time, the SD60 hasn't appeared in an M.T.H. catalog since 1996. Like all RailKing Scale diesels, the SD60 sports prototypical scale dimensions, two motors and the incredible sounds and features of Proto-Sound 2.0. Operators will find no better locomotive for mainline work than these great pulling machines. The industry-leading Proto-Speed control feature allows unprecented slow-speed performance no matter what the terrain or load. Programmed with an incredible array of digital sounds, the Proto-Sound 2.0 system gives users more interaction and excitement including remote uncoupling anywhere on the layout - a feature you won't find anywhere else! Did You Know? The SD60's horn was originally located just above the engineer's cab but was relocated between the exhaust stack and front radiator fan.
