Bachmann 65414 HO Scale Wabtec/GE ES44 Canadian National CN 2952 DCC and WOWSound

Built for heavy, mainline railroading, the ES44AC plays a vital role in the roster of almost all Class I freight railroads. Designed to meet EPA Tier II emissions standards, the ES44AC succeeded the AC4400CW as Wabtec’s (formerly GE Transportation) premier AC traction locomotive in 2003, becoming the first member of the Evolution series.
