Model Railroading > BLI HO scale ES44AC's

Per Model Railroad News as of three days ago:

"Broadway Limited Imports (BLI) announces an all-new tooling General Electric ES44AC for its HO-scale line. Two versions will be produced, one with Norfolk Southern roof details and another with Union Pacific roof detailing. Perhaps the biggest feature of interest for this new BLI’s ES44AC GEVO will be its ability to produce smoke. BLI will equip its new HO-scale GEVO model with the company’s Paragon2 sound and operation system including variable load-based smoke output.

This six-axle Evolution Series 4,400 hp diesel locomotive is a mainstay of contemporary North American railroad rosters. For its initial release, Broadway Limited will deliver Norfolk Southern examples, plus the popular heritage paints for Central of Georgia, Conrail, Interstate Railroad, Lehigh Valley, Nickel Plate Road, Norfolk Southern (original), Pennsylvania Railroad, and Southern Railway. Union Pacific ES44ACs will be offered with two road numbers. BLI will also deliver undecorated examples for both."

They are also adding smoke to their new runs of AC6000CWs.

Smoking GE's! Now, if we can just get a realistic stack fire.

I'm sure it still looks like cigarette smoke...

hey Chris did Broadway say that on there cite about ac6000cw not seeing the information you are stating about smoke to that unit.

I got them in an email from HO Hobbies.
