NIB N Scale Walthers/LifeLike Proto #7738 DL109 Chicago, Rock Island & Pacific #621 Handle Limiteds on your N Scale Layout Alcos DL109 of 1940 was the builders early entry into the passenger diesel market. With its sleek lines, knife-edged nose and long wheelbase, it was ideally suited for high-speed service, and with 2,000 horsepower under the hood, it could handle passengers or high-speed freight with ease. Because of its dual-service capabilities, Alco was allowed to construct the DL-109 in the face of wartime restrictions on passenger-only locos, and the units performed admirably around the clock, handling passengers during the day and freight trains at night. Using lessons learned with the DL-109, it was succeeded by the PA-1 in 1946. The new PROTO N Alco DL-109 locomotive captures the slender lines of this 1940s prototype in a powerful, smooth-running N Scale model. Features include a heavy, split-frame chassis, five-pole motor with dual flywheels, eight-wheel drive (just like the prototype!), all-wheel electrical pickup, directional LED headlight and AccuMate & regular knuckle couplers. Coupled with a finely detailed body (right down to the thin rivet strip around the cab windows) and authentic paint schemes, these units will look perfect on your passenger trains.
