Bachmann EMD FT-A  TCS DCC SOUND VALUE HO Scale
Produced between 1939 and 1945, the FT was the first in EMD’s legendary F-Unit series. It was considered one of the most influential locomotive models of all time and was credited with helping convince US railroads that diesel power was indeed the way of the future. Bachmann’s new DCC-Sound equipped HO scale FT includes the TCS Sound Value diesel locomotive package, featuring authentic prime mover effects and 8 horn options to choose from.
Features include:
DCC Sound-equipped for sound, speed, direction, and lighting control
Keep-Alive® device that keeps your engine running during power interruptions due to dirty track or loss of electrical contact
Dual-mode NMRA-compliant decoder
Operating headlight 
Can motor with all-wheel drive 
RP25 wheel contours 
E-Z Mate® Mark II couplers

Bachmann ALCO RS-3 TCS DCC SOUND VALUE HO Scale
Introduced in 1950, this all-purpose 1600-HP locomotive had the stamina and strength to handle road trains in freight and passenger service, yet was also agile enough to perform yard duties. With its rugged, dependable design, it’s no wonder that many of these versatile RS-3 locomotives survived well beyond their contemporaries, with examples still continuing to perform their as-designed roles on short lines and tourist railroads to this day. This DCC sound-equipped model includes our TCS Sound Value diesel locomotive package, featuring a prototypical prime mover, 3 air horns, and a bell. A Keep Alive® device allows the model to operate smoothly over dirty track and during power interruptions.
