HO SW1500 Diesel SOU #2337/DCC
Between 1966 and 1974, EMD produced 807 of the
12-cylinder SW1500 switchers. These prolific switchers are
easily recognized by their high mounted walkways, tall, low-radius
arched roof cab, dual exhaust stacks, and a long hood
headlight. EMD offered the SW’s with either the standard AAR
type A trucks or the optional Flexicoil designed trucks. More
than half of the railroads chose the Flexicoil trucks.
Our model, of course, maintains our high standard for quality and
detail. Beyond the high level of detail, these DC and
DCC-Sound equipped locomotives feature the Paragon2 sound and control
system. Each Paragon2 locomotive comes with BLI’s own integral DCC
Decoder factory installed. Paragon2 locomotives offer Dual
Mode DC and DCC operation with: superb back EMF motor control in DC and
DCC, recordable DCC operation for automated playback, the same detail
level as the original Paragon Series, and the familiar sturdy maroon
box!
EMD’s SW1500 was a capable switcher
that saw distinguished duty for many railroads. BLI’s model
is ready for duty on your layout, and like all BLI locomotives, she
looks, operates, and sounds great!
