Great for railroads that preferred four-axle diesels for their passenger runs, prototypes for the WalthersProto EMD FP7 came equipped with more boiler water capacity on their stretched chassis. Providing enough steam to power train heat and some air conditioning systems on postwar trains taxed the standard water supply of standard EMD F7 A units set-up for passenger service, prompting EMD to roll out the new FP7 in 1949. Though outwardly similar to the F7A, FP7s were actually four feet longer to accommodate bigger water tanks with a capacity of 950 US gallons.

Power your HO railroad's flagship streamliners with these superb replicas of EMD's famed E8 and E9 diesels. Introduced in 1948 with the new 567B prime mover, production continued until 1954 when the virtually identical E9 was introduced with the more powerful 567C prime mover. Powerful, reliable and economical, EMD E units handled premiere long-distance trains for decades, with many ending their long careers in commuter service and occasionally handling fast freight trains. Fully assembled and ready for service, features include: One time run of these roadnumbers, order now - limited quantity available! Road- and era-specific details Both units powered - matching individual A units available separately Rugged and reliable WalthersProto drive 21-pin DCC plug Formed wire grab irons and handrails Photo-etched lift rings Cab interior w/seats and figures All-wheel drive and electrical pickup Constant and directional LED lights Correct size RP-25 metal wheels Proto MAX(TM) metal knuckle couplersRoad-specific features of this WalthersProto replica include: Nathan five-chime (all forward) air horn Single horizontal sealed-beam headlight Working backup light Flush number boards Removed skirts Freight pilot Southern-style MU bracket 4-hose MU set at left and right Photo-etched E8A-style Farr air grilles Dynamic brake with 48" fan Winterization hatches w/levers Single offset steam generator Rooftop air reservoirs w/piping Round spark arrestors Rectangular air vent Roller bearing sideframes Wheel slip hubs Speed recorder Southern-style left and right water tanks More Information Item # 920-49921 Brand WalthersProto Scale HO Engine Electronics DC / DCC Ready Type EMD Diesel Road Name Southern Road Number 6903 & 6915

The Baldwin 12-8-1500/2 were BLW's first serious attempt at a production road diesel locomotive.   Baldwin built the famous "Centipedes" between 1945-48.   The carbody rode on two enormous articulated half-frames that were linked at the middled with a hinged joint.  One unpowered four-wheel truck at each end guided the locomotive through curves and helped provide stability.  The Centipedes were huge - 91.5' feet long for single units as operated on SAL and NdM.  Semi-permanently coupled pairs, as operated on the PRR, were 183' long!   Each unit contained two 1500 horsepower diesel motors, so a pair contained four motors and totaled 6000 horsepower.  Centipedes were heavy, totaling 1,200,000 pounds (1.2 million) for a pair, with more than 800,000 of those pounds carried by the 16 drivers. In 1945, the prototype A1-A2 set toured American railroads and three railroads placed orders - PRR, SAL, and NdeM.   Union Pacific originally ordered two units, but never took delivery.  Unfortunately, the Centipedes did not last long in service.   PRR and SAL retired theirs by the early 1960's and NdeM followed in the late 60's.   The Centipedes were enormous, and maybe the most unique diesel locomotive design of the era, but they could not compete with the more capable EMD locomotives.    In our 2022 production of Centipedes, we are offering models in all of the prototypical paint schemes, including the Demonstrator scheme.   We are also offering two Union Pacific sets.  There has been a debate over the years about which road numbers the units would have been assigned, so we have built models painted for both 1600A/1601A and also 998/999.     Industry-leading Model Features:    Paragon4 Sound & Control System featuring ROLLING THUNDER Integral Dual-Mode Decoder with Back EMF for Superb Slow Speed Operation in DC and DCC Precision Drive Mechanism Engineered for Heavy Towing and Smooth Slow Speed Operation ABS Body with Die Cast Chassis for Maximum Tractive Effort Built-in Capacity Pack for Improved Electrical Pick-up Premium Caliber Painting Prototypically Accurate Paint Schemes and Road Numbers Many Separately Applied Details such as Handrails, Grab Irons, Horn, Bell, Wipers, and Etched Metal Grills Prototypical Light Operation Including Separately Controllable Headlight, Rear Light, Cab Light, and Numberboards Prototypically Accurate Sounds for the Baldwin Centipede Locomotive Metal Kadee-compatible Couplers (2) Will Operate on Code 70, Code 83, and Code 100 Rail Minimum Operating Radius:  22 inches     Broadway Limited Imports is proud to introduce Paragon4: The new benchmark for premium HO sound-equipped locomotives. These DC and DCC-Sound equipped locomotives feature the ALL-NEW Paragon4 sound and control system. Each Paragon4 locomotive comes with BLI's own integral DCC Decoder factory installed.  Paragon4 locomotives offer Dual Mode DC and DCC operation with superb back EMF motor control, improved DC motor control, built-in capacitor pack for more reliable electrical pick-up, industry best on-board sound with Rolling Thunder functionality, Pro Lighting Mode for prototypical light control, Switcher model for precise low speed control, recordable DCC operation for automated playback, and the same excellent detail level as Broadway Limited's Paragon3 Series models.    Paragon4 Sound & Control System Features: Operates in DC & DCC with improved DC speed control (use DCMaster for DC Sound) Built-In extra capacitance to navigate imperfect track Pro Lighting Mode offers individual control of all lights on model Switcher Mode for precise low speed control Record & Play Operation - Records and plays back sounds and movements once or repeatedly for automatic operation High Resolution Audio Quillable Horn for various whistle lengths and patterns Choice of 3 selectable Horns Alternate Whistle / Horn where applicable for locomotive with air horn and steam whistle - both the main whistle and alternate can be easily played Adjustable bell ringing interval for faster or slower bell Numerous user-mappable functions with available keys Multiple realistic passenger and crew sounds play on command Grade Crossing Automatic Signal Automatic Forward / Reverse Signal Prime Mover sound intensity varies with load Individually adjustable sound volumes for each effect EZ Reset Button for quick return to factory default settings **Specifications on this page subject to change.
