GE AC4400CW


Prototype Information:

In 1994, GE delivered the first AC4400CW locomotive, their answer to EMD's successful SD70MAC. Nearly 10 years later, the AC4400CW has become one of the most successful locomotives in the history of North American railroading. The AC4400CW is operated by railroads from East to West and Canada to Mexico. The main spotting feature for the AC4400CW, when compared to the similar C44-9W, is the large Inverter Cabinet behind the helper's side of the cab (conductor/brakeman's side).

Model Information:

The HO AC4400CW locomotive is designed to be "Sound Friendly". The design allows for the easy installation of a 1.1" (28mm) diameter speaker in the fuel tank, allowing simple installation of DCC sound decoders. Furthermore, Cab type, Inverter Cabinet, Number Board type and location, and Fuel Tank are correct for each roadname.
