Description: English below

Die eleganten F7 der New York Central zogen Personen- und Güterzüge über die berühmte “Water Level Route” von New York nach Chicago. Diese eindrucksvolle Lok ist als LGB-Modell erhältlich. Zwei Bühler-Motoren sorgen für eine außergewöhnliche Zugkraft. Dazu gibt es eine passende LGB B-Unit mit digitalem Sound (21582).

Vorbild
Gegen Ende der 40-er Jahre stellte die Elektro Motive Division (EMD) von General Motors diese klassische dieselelektrische Lok vor. Mit der formschönen "Bulldoggen"-Nase und einer Leistung von 1500 PS war die F7 bei den Eisenbahngesellschaften und Fans gleichermaßen beliebt. Fast 2400 F7-Loks wurden für viele verschiedene amerikanische Bahngesellschaften gebaut, wo sie bis in die 70-er Jahre im Güter- und Personenverkehr eingesetzt wurden.

The New York Central’s elegant F7s powered freight and passenger trains along the famous “Water Level Route” connecting New York City to the Midwest. You can add their sophisticated look to your layout with this big LGB model. Two Bühler-powered trucks provide remarkable pulling power. Add digital sound by adding a matching LGB B-unit (21582).

The Prototype
