Santa Fe O Scale Premier Dash-9 Diesel Engine (Non-Powered)

Throughout history, engineers have tried to generate more horsepower with smaller, more compact engines. General Electric's Dash-9 is no exception. Using a turbo-charged 16 cylinder prime mover, the Dash-9, also known as the C44-9W, can reach 4,400 horsepower. The Dash-9 provided many mechanical and electrical improvements over the Dash-8 line, and it is, in fact, both the culmination of the GE "Dash" engines and the forebear of a new class of locomotives. Later locomotives in this family are called AC-class engines.

Add a non-powered version of this incredible locomotive to your powered Proto-Sound 2.0 equipped Dash-9 for a fun-filled multi-unit lashup. Equipped with operating metal couplers and all the details found on the powered version but at half the cost make this unit an inexpensive addition to your roster.
