EMD SD40-2 Early Production Chicago & NW #6847

As a prototype, the SD40-2 was the most popular second-generation diesel with sales of over 3000 in the U.S. and more than 700 in Canada. There were many variations of this popular diesel because of the long production run - Early units featured an 81 nose, chicken wire grills and a ratchet brake vs. a brake wheel that would be found on later units. C&NW #6847 and #6858 would carry the as delivered paint scheme that adorns them through their entire operational life, with #6847 remaining operational to this day at the Illinois Railway Museum in Union, IL.

"Incredible running diesel"
TrainmanDan (Nashville, TN)
My grandfather was a fireman and locomotive engineer for C&NW back in 1930's, eventually crossing over into diesels before he retired. I love having this company running on my n scale layout. Great running train and feel he's watching over the main line every time I run it. Thank you Kato, Thank you Hobbylinc for the great memories of my grandpa.
