Description
Description
Primary spotting features include a stepped-out radiator section and two sets of three tall engine access doors near the center of the long hood. During production, the U23B was equipped with various truck side frames, including Blomberg trucks from EMD trade-in locomotives, AAR-style trucks, or GE's own four-axle "FB2" truck. One of these three truck styles is included on our model where appropriate per road name.
Today the number of active U23B's has dwindled, but a handful can still be found working for short lines and regional railroads in North America.
Features:
Snow plow (included when appropriate per road name)
Separately-applied scale detail parts include: windshield wipers, metal grab irons, coupler cut levers, multiple-unit hoses, train line hoses, fine scale handrails, drop steps and more!
Five pole skewed armature motor with dual flywheels for optimum performance at all speeds
Directional lighting with Golden-white LEDs
Blackened metal wheels
Silver Sound Ready
Atlas Silver Sound Ready models are equipped with a speaker for easy conversion to sound with the addition of a decoder.
Atlas Master Series Silver Additional Features:
NMRA 8-pin plug for DCC (Decoder-ready)
Analog (DC) Operation:
The LokSound Select Dual-Mode decoder allows your Atlas Gold Series locomotive to be used on DC as well as on DCC layouts.
Please note that the Atlas Quantum Engineer will NOT operate an Atlas Gold Series locomotive equipped with a LokSound Select decoder on an analog (DC) layout. However, the sound and lighting
functions of the LokSound Select decoder in the Atlas Gold Series U23B locomotive can be controlled by an easy-to-use basic DCC system.
Also note that on a DC-powered layout, a DCC and sound equipped locomotive (such as the Atlas Gold Series U23B) CANNOT be consisted with another locomotive that does not also have both DCC and sound. (This statement does NOT apply to DCC-equipped locomotives operating on a DCC layout.)
Preorders: Frequently Asked Questions
What is preordering and why would I want to do that?
What is preordering and why would I want to do that?
In the model railroading world, most products are made in limited runs. Manufacturers no longer produce large quantities to sit in warehouses. Instead, they announce new items and set a preorder deadline. After that date, production is based largely on the number of reservations received.
Preordering through Model Train Stuff guarantees your spot in line for these limited releases. When the products arrive, orders are filled in the order they were placed. The earlier you preorder, the better your chance of getting your items, even if there are shipping delays or shortfalls from the manufacturer.
