Overview:

Like most switchers, EMD's SW8 found a home with many railroads and industries alike. Locomotives featured in this run handled everything from branch line freight, to shunting passenger cars, to Titan rockets! Their diversity in operations was exceeded only by the variety of paint schemes they wore. The SW8 models include road name specific handrail and roof detail options. Featuring a single motor drive, both LEGACY and Bluetooth control, RailSounds and fixed pilots, these versatile locomotives offer tremendous features and detail in a compact model. How will you put yours to use?
