Bachmann 68352 Siemens ALC-42 Locomotive, Amtrak #300, N Scale

TCS WOWSOUND DCC EQUIPPED

The future of long-distance passenger railroading is heading to N Scale. Based on the highly successful medium-distance SC-44 Charger, the ALC-42 displays a range of new features for cross-country service on America’s most scenic and storied routes, including a unique nose design and cab door configuration.
