First introduced in 1987, hundreds of 4,000-horsepower Dash 8-40Cs are equally at home on hotshot imtermodal trains, manifest freights and heavy coal trains. These detailed models feature a five-pole, skew-wound motor, low-friction mechanism, directional golden-white LED headlights, blackened-metal wheels, painted safety rails and factory-installed Accumate(R) knuckle couplers.
