Constructed for US railroads from coast to coast, the units were also ordered by Canadian roads, and significant export orders went to Australia and Brazil.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Athearn Genesis Dash 9-44CW is equally as impressive as its prototype, with a host of railroad specific details. From Canadian National’s unique “tear drop” windows to the early body details on Southern Pacific and Santa Fe, these models take the Genesis line to new heights. Standard on all models are Athearn’s superior paint colors, reliable Genesis drive and LED lighting for years of trouble free operation.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIn 1995, Union Pacific purchased the Chicago and Northwestern and integrated the operation with its own. Re-painting of the recently acquired locomotives took place slowly, especially for the newer units (like the Dash 9s) whose paint jobs were only 1-2 years old at the time of the merger. Therefore, patched and renumbered CNW locomotives continued to operate on the UP system for many years.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFEATURES:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePatched and renumbered former CNW units\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePatch, logo placement, and “burn marks” per prototype road #\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNathan K3LA horn\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e“Primered” replacement engine compartment doors\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eUP logos on sides of nose\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBurn marks on engine compartment\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGhost outline of original CNW road number (8632)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLarge snowplow\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIlluminated ground lights above front trucks, front and rear walkway lights, and number boards\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eEtched, see-through walkway steps\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCoupler cut levers\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMU hoses\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTrainline hose\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSee-through cab windows\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFull cab interior\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWalkway tread\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWindshield wipers\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLift rings\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWire grab irons\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSander lines\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDCC-ready features Quick Plug™ plug-and-play technology with 21-pin NEM connector\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFine-scale Celcon handrails for scale appearance\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDetailed fuel tank with fuel fillers, fuel gauges, \u0026amp; breather pipes\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBody-mounted McHenry® operating scale knuckle couplers\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGenesis driveline with 5-pole skew wound motor, precision machined flywheels, and multi-link drivetrain for trouble free operation\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAll-wheel drive with precision gears for smooth and quiet operation\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAll-wheel electrical pickup provides reliable current flow\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWheels with RP25 contours operate on all popular brands of track\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLED Lighting for trouble free operation\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHeavy die-cast frame for greater traction and more pulling power\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eScaled from prototype resources including drawings, field measurements, photographs, and more\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAccurately-painted and –printed paint schemes\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFully-assembled and ready-to-run\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePackaging securely holds the model for safe storage\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMinimum radius: 18” — Recommended radius: 22”\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSOUND-EQUIPPED MODELS ALSO FEATURE:\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOnboard DCC decoder with SoundTraxx Tsunami2 sound\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDual cube speakers for optimal sound quality\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSound units operate in both DC and DCC\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFull DCC functions available when operated in DCC mode\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eEngine, horn, and bell sounds work in DC\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAll functions NMRA compatible in DCC mode\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePrecision slow speed control\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eProgram a multiple unit (MU) lashup with lead unit only horn, bell, and lights\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMany functions can be altered via Configuration Value (CV) changes\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCV chart included in the box\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSPECIFICATIONS:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDCC: Equipped\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSOUND: Tsunami2\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePROTOTYPE MANUFACTURER: EMD\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAxles: 6\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLIGHTED: LED Lighting\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMinimum Age Recommendation: 14 years\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIs Assembly Required: No\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Athearn Genesis","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":43710558568661,"sku":"ATHG31562","price":314.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0520\/1972\/4454\/products\/athearn-genesis-g31562-ho-scalle-dash-9-44cw-ex-c-nw-up-9696-dcc-sound.jpg?v=1665508906","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterosehobbies.com\/products\/athearn-genesis-g31562-ho-scalle-dash-9-44cw-ex-c-nw-up-9696-dcc-sound","provider":"White Rose Hobbies","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
