Information | - The
first year of production of the E8/9 by EMD was 1949. More than 500 A-units and
80 B-units would eventually be built.
-
The E8/9 diesel locomotive shared the similar "bulldog nose" carbody
style as the shorter, more popular F7 and was powered by two separate 12-cylinder
prime movers capable of producing 2250/2400 hp.
-
The E8/9 also rode on A-1-A trucks (powered axle-idler axle-powered axle), resulting
in an exceptionally smooth ride favored by crews.
-
The E8/9 was produced in both A-units and cabless B-units. The A-units were usually
built to railroad specification of either single or dual headlight and freight
or passenger pilot.
Like the F3 and F7 of the same time period, the E8/9
was utilized in both passenger and freight service. |
- All units
are equipped KATO five-pole motor with dual brass flywheels.
- All
units are equipped with the remarkably prototypical-looking, semi-automatic KATO
couplers.
-
All units feature white LED headlights!
- DCC
Ready engines easily accept the Digitrax DIG-DN163K0A.
