In 1959, EMD launched the turbocharged GP20, a four - axle road switcher with a 567D2 turbocharged engine that can generate 2000 horsepower. Between 1959 and 1962, 260 of these locomotives were made and sold to eight US railroads. Many still run on short lines today. Broadway Limited Imports is offering this model in eleven real - life paint schemes, one unpainted model similar to a CB&Q GP20, and five fantasy paint schemes. This model has top - notch features. The Paragon4 Sound & Control System with ROLLING THUNDER gives an immersive experience. It also has a built - in capacitor pack for stable electrical pick - up. The dual - mode decoder ensures great slow - speed operation in both DC and DCC. With a precision drive mechanism, it can tow heavy loads smoothly. The 5 - pole can motor with a skew wound armature, all - wheel electrical pick - up, and an ABS plastic body on a die - cast chassis make it a high - quality piece. It has accurate paint schemes, many separately applied details like handrails and antennas, and a factory - installed engineer figure. The lighting and sounds are prototypically accurate, and it comes with metal Kadee - compatible couplers. It can operate on Code 70, 83, and 100 rail with a minimum operating radius of 18 inches. The Paragon4 system also offers dual - mode DC and DCC operation, superb motor control, and many user - friendly features like recordable operation and adjustable sound volumes.

Using this Broadway Limited HO scale model train is easy. First, make sure your track is clean and in good condition. You can operate it in either DC or DCC mode. For DC operation, you can use the DCMaster for sound. When using DCC, the built - in decoder will do the job. The train's built - in capacitor pack helps it navigate over imperfect track, but it'll be automatically disabled on the program track for full compatibility with JMRI Decoder Pro. To control the lights, use the Pro Lighting Mode which allows individual control of all the lights on the model. For precise low - speed control, switch to the Switcher Mode. You can even record and play back the train's sounds and movements for automatic operation. When it comes to maintenance, keep the track clean regularly to ensure smooth operation. Check the wheels and electrical pick - up points from time to time for any dirt or debris. If the paint gets chipped, you can carefully touch it up with appropriate model paint. Always store the train in a dry and clean place to prevent any damage.
