An articulated engine that provided tremendous power at high speeds, the EM-1 was ideal for hauling passengers and heavy loads of coal up and down the Appalachian Mountains. Using the latest N scale technology, including a new advanced Bachmann/Lenz DCC decoder with back EMF, Bachmann has crafted a finely detailed EM-1 2-8-8-4 worthy of its prototype. With its twin brass flywheels, all-wheel pickup, and traction tires, it is ready to ascend to new heights of modeling on your N scale layout.
