Description
From rail yards to branch lines to industrial use, the NW2 provided reliable and efficient motive power for switching and local freight use. EMD's best-selling switcher of all time, the NW2 could be found on the largest and smallest of railroads as well as in many industrial settings. Dozens are still going strong today!
Over the long production run of the locomotive, there were several variations in design. The most common of these changes were the louvers in the hood doors and styling of the side sills. Lionel is bringing this pivotal prototype to our roster of scale diesels with all new tooling which will capture the many detail variations found between the different prototypes including the changing body styles. The locomotives feature fixed pilots with scale coupler mounting pads for easy conversion.
