Alaska O Gauge RailKing SW-1500 Diesel R-T-R Train Set w/Proto-Sound 2.0

Created by an act of Congress in 1914, the Alaska Railroad was owned and operated by the U.S. government until 1985, when the State of Alaska became the railroad's new owner. The railroad helped develop the state's economy and played a strategic role in World War II. It continues to thrive today, carrying lumber and petroleum products out of the Alaska wilderness to its southern ports, and giving tourists - more than a half-million of them a year - great views of Alaska's majestic beauty.

Recreate the excitement of this wilderness railroad with this hard-working M.T.H. diesel set featuring three colorful, highly-detailed cars. With its twin flywheel-equipped motors and rubber traction tires, the Alaska Railroad SW-1500 diesel is ready for the heaviest trains on your railroad. For even more fun, add a heavy-duty snowplow in front of the engine or an operating dump car behind it. As with all Proto-Sound 2.0 locomotives, the Alaska RR diesel offers amazing slow speed capability, Proto-Speed cruise control at all speeds from a crawl to full throttle, and a wide range of dramatic railroad sounds.
