| 產品介紹: EMD SD80MAC 目前仍是北美主要柴油機車頭, 也是世界上少數最長、最重的(400,000LBx80feet)的載貨柴油機車頭. Weighing in at more than 400,000 pounds and with a length in excess of 80 feet, the 80/90 is one of the heaviest and longest single diesel locomotive in the world. The 80/90MAC series was introduced by EMD in late 1995. Conrail was the first railroad to receive the 80MAC in early 1996. As it would turn out, Conrail would be the only original buyer of this locomotive, even purchasing both of the demonstrator units. CSX and Norfolk Southern have since acquired these units. The behemoth SD80 can generate up to 5,000 horsepower. The maximum speed of the 80/90 is 75 mph. To date, there have been three production "versions" of the SD90. The production version we have chosen to recreate is the 4,300 horsepower 9043. Union Pacific, by far, operates the largest fleet of SD90 units. They have even applied different paint schemes to these units. The 80/90 is equipped with the revolutionary radial truck, capable of reducing the angle of wear between wheels and rail. While keeping the wheels parallel to the direction of the track, this truck literally steers the locomotive through curves. This new technology improves locomotive adhesion and performance, eliminates several conventional truck components, extends locomotive component and track life and improves the ride quality. (Source: "Mechanically Speaking," Volume 3, Issue 12) Kato 此款幾項特色: 1. DCC decoder 安裝容易. 2. Led 超亮前後燈. 3. KATO 五爪馬達及銅質飛輪, 所有車輪已黑化處理. 4. 操作弧線半徑 9-3/4", 建議操作弧線半徑不要小於 11". Model Features: This production includes models of both the SD80MAC and SD9043MAC (i.e., different molds). Three numbered Conrail units plus an Undecorated model are available in the SD80 body style. Three engine numbers for two different Union Pacific paint schemes are offered within the SD9043MAC models, as well as three engine numbers of Canadian Pacific and an Undecorated model. These are a big, heavy model!! The overall length from coupler to coupler is approximately 6.25" and the weight is 134.3 grams. These are our biggest U.S. model to date. The split metal frame mechanism is "DCC-friendly" (designed for easy drop-in installation of decoder). All models are equipped with bright white LED headlights. These models also have lighted front-end ditch lights, similar to those on our C44-9W models. All models are equipped with KATO semi-automatic, body-mounted knuckle couplers. All models include printed numberboards (modeler install). The detail of these models is SUPERB, with a detailed underframe and detailed printing (including Warning Labels on hood doors!!!!) All models are equipped with the powerful KATO five-pole motor with dual brass flywheels. The pulling capability of these models is reported to be 450g at 4% grade/10v DC ... twice the pulling power of our SD40-2 models! These models feature NEW 7.4mm diameter, chemically blackened metal wheels. While these models are capable of operating on a 9-3/4" radius curve, it is recommended they be run on curves no smaller than an 11" radius to prevent the appearance of unrealistic overhang. [If operating on 249mm radius curve, the longer shank coupler (included) should be installed.] Modeling era: 1995 to present. Some retailers may have previously speculated on other prototype versions, roadnames, paint schemes and engine numbers. The models detailed below are the ONLY ones to be produced in this release. PLEASE NOTE: KATO advertisements in the hobby magazines designate the third engine number of Canadian Pacific to be 9121. This is incorrect. The correct road number for this unit will be 9122. |
