The operating manual for
the prototype NW-2 is
posted here.
Click here for a video of the DCC sound equipped (SoundTraxx Tsunami) version of our NW2, supplied by Bill Lane!
Shortly before its purchase by General Motors, Electro-Motive Corporation introduced its second generation diesel-electric switching locomotive, the NW-2. Responding to the railroad's requirements for more powerful switching locomotives, the NW-2's design improvements incorporated a larger, 1000HP engine, a completely welded frame, and changes in body styling. Built from 1939 until the end of 1949, NW-2s proved to be EMD's most popular switcher, and enjoyed the longest production run of any EMD product. Almost 1,150 units were delivered to railroads in the U.S. and Canada.
Second run Road Names now available include ATSF, CB&Q, and PRR. The NW-2s are available with LocoMatic™ sound or DCC right from the factory! Other features include "golden white" LED headlights and interior cab lights.
Right out of the box, your NW-2 will run on any layout with American Flyer® compatible track. We also include all the parts necessary to operate with code 110 RP-25 wheels. The AC/DC no sound version will operate with a standard transformer, rectifier, and/or rheostat speed control. LocoMatic™ Sound versions include the sound of the prime mover and brake release, plus standard sequential locomotive control (i.e. Forward, Neutral, Reverse, with directional lighting).
DCC versions are available with or without SoundTraxx DCC sound. DCC versions require a DCC system, available separately or bundled at a special price.
| Only $199.95 AC/DC,
$239.95 with DCC, or $299.95 with DCC or LocoMatic™ Sound! |
We are running low on NW-2s. Still available: ATSF in two numbers, PRR in Tuscan, and CB&Q in Red (arriving next month), one number each. All are available in AC/DC, or with LocoMatic or DCC sound!
The LocoMatic 10 Button Controller is available here.
We have added a DCC sound option! The QSI Titan decoders are the default for DCC sound. These are brand new decoders, and sound and run great! The SoundTraxx Tsunami decoders are also available. If you would prefer Tsunami, please note that in the special instructions section of the order. Click here for the Tsunami instruction sheet.
We have also added an option to include Lenz Set-100 at a special bundled price when you buy a DCC equiped NW-2. The Lenz Set-100 includes everything you need to get started with DCC! Here is the Quick Start for the Lenz Set-100. There is information elsewhere on this site on adding DCC to an existing layout, including what add-on modules may be required.
