Kato 176-CHICAGO - EMD F40PH DC Silent Metra (METX) #104 "City of Chicago" - N Scale

Description
As of 2023, Chicago Metra owns and operates the largest number of surviving F40PH engines 0 118.   Starting in 2017 Metra began repainting certain locomotives to commemorate historic railroads or special events.  In 2022 F40PH #104 was added to the roster of special Metra engines when it received a one-of-a-kind 0City of Chicago0 livery.  The shades of blue with red stars are a direct reference to the Chicago city flag, while the skyline silhouette below the cab windows pay homage to the area that Metra is proud to serve and call home.

 

Model Features:
All locomotives are equipped with body mounted KATO magnetic knuckle couplers.
Locomotives feature directional Golden White LED headlights and illuminated preprinted number boards.
Locomotives are equipped with shock absorber construction for smooth and prototypical motion on the track.
Locomotives have a powerful five pole motor with all wheel electrical pickup and blackened wheels.
Additional alternate snow plow piece included for tight radius operation.
New Commuter-version F40PH locomotives and Amtrak Phase III ditch light versions have retooled bodies with over-cab A/C units and illuminated ditch lights.
Chicago Metra version F40PH locomotives have directional head and tail lights on the front of the locomotive for push-pull operation.
