Description

Kato N Scale Metra #160 F40PH Ditch Lights Village of Winfield TCS DCC 176-9102DCC

Prototype Information:

The EMD F40PH is synonymous with the Amtrak era of American passenger trains. Although it has been retired from Amtrak service, it operated for over 20 years and today it continues to be the motive power for commuter railroads such as VRE, MBTA, Caltrain, Metrolink, Metra and more all over the United States. Over 400 F40PH locmotives have been manufactured by EMD in various configurations.

To support passenger service, the F40PH is equipped with a secondary electrical generator referred to as the Head End Generator, or HEP (Head End Power). The need for constant, constand frequency power means that these HEP units are consistently running at 900 RPM, resulting in the nickname “Screamers” due to the sound.
