N Scale C40-8W UP'Baby Wings' #9428

N Scale C40-8W Union Pacific 'Baby Wings' #9428

The 4,000hp Dash 8-40CW was produced by General Electric between 1989 and 1993
as a follow-up to the successful Dash 8-40C locomotive. The most distinguishing feature
of this model was the introduction of GE?s version of the wide-nose ?North American Safety Cab.?
This style of cab would become a common sight on railroads across the country. Four major railroads
purchased the Dash 8-40CW in fairly large quantities, including Conrail, CSX, Santa Fe and Union Pacific.
Most of these units are still in regular mainline and heavy-haul freight service today. Due to various mergers,
they can also be seen operating for new owners Norfolk Southern and BNSF.
