Description

Kato N Scale Milwaukee Road FP7A Locomotive #90C Hiawatha 176-2302

 

Prototype Information:

The F-Unit is probably the most recognized diesel locomotive in North American history.
It was found on railroads from East to West and North to South.
Eastern railroads favored a “Single Headlight” version of the F3A,
while Western railroads favored a “Dual Headlight” version.
F3 locomotives were used in both freight and passenger service.
For passenger service, it was necessary for the locomotives to have a Steam Generator to provide heat and electricity in the passenger cars.
In later years, many F3 locomotives originally intended for passenger services were downgraded to freight duty.

Model Features:

The Kato EMD F7 comes in both A and B (cabless) variations,
and is retooled from earlier variations of the F-unit locomotive chassis to make it DCC friendly.
Passenger units can be identified by their Steam Generators
vs. freight units which lack this detail.
Model Features:

DCC friendly mechanism
A-unit LED has directional headlight and illuminated number boards
Locomotives have a powerful five pole motor with all wheel electrical pickup and blackened wheels
KATO magnetic knuckle couplers
Drop in DCC compatible with the Train Control Systems K0D8 series and Digitrax DN163K0B
