NEW N Scale Kato #166-0110 RDC2 Alaska Railroad #711

Commonly known as the "RDC," the motorized Rail Diesel Car generally operated in rural areas where ridership and mail/parcel transport were too low for regular passenger train service.

When first introduced, the RDC was also proclaimed to be the savior of branch line and suburban service. It was heavily used as a commuter service workhorse (and still is currently in some locations!).

The Budd Company rolled out the first RDC in the fall of 1949, a single RDC-1 "Budd Demonstrator." Hundreds more would eventually follow for service to railroads throughout North America and around the world (including South America, Australia, Saudi Arabia and even Cuba!)

ALL models are motorized.

All units are equipped with "golden glow" LED directional headlight, reminiscent of the actual cars.

All models are equipped with body-mount, FULLY-AUTOMATIC KATO knuckle couplers.

Interior of model can be lighted with the optional installation of #11-204 Light Set (sold separately).

High level of craftsmanship and precision detail, particularly to underfloor body component.

Window frame detail is the same as on recent Corrugated Passenger Cars. Please note, though, that the side windows are trimmed in black while the operator's cab window is outlined in silver, just as it is on the prototype since the operator's is a "drop-down" window.

While these models should be capable of operating on a 9-3/4" radius curve, it is recommended they be run on curves no smaller than an 11" radius to prevent the appearance of unrealistic overhang and occurrance of premature uncoupling.

Modeling era: 1949 to late 1970's/early 1980's, although present day modeling would also be suitable. (Five decades of modeling possibility!!!)
