Walthers Mainline 910-20017 HO ML-8 DCC Red with Pilot Stripes

Small in size but strong on power, the Walthers Mainline 910-20017 is a Plymouth ML-8 industrial switcher finished in a Red scheme with pilot stripes. This compact diesel is ideal for railroad shops, short lines, and industries, and it arrives fully assembled and ready to run. The 910-20017 is a DCC-only model with an ESU LokPilot non-sound decoder, whose built-in capacitor helps keep it running through brief interruptions in track power. As a painted, unlettered model it includes decals with Cornerstone industry logos, numbers, and more.

A three-point suspension keeps all wheels in positive contact with the rail, and the locomotive is built on a highly detailed, heavy die-cast metal underframe and hood. Etched metal see-through radiator grille work and separate metal handrails add realism to the 910-20017. The Walthers Mainline drive underneath combines a 5-pole skew-wound motor with prototypical low-speed gearing and helical-cut gears for quiet operation, plus all-wheel drive and pickup and a machined brass flywheel. Constant and directional LED lights, RP-25 metal wheels, and Proto MAX metal knuckle couplers complete the model.
