Released Date: | Est. 1st Quarter 2026 |
Individually Boxed: | N/A |
Overview:
Offering better reliability and lower maintenance costs than the higher powered SD-45, EMD’s SD40-2 enjoyed a long production run of 3,100 units. The 3,000 horsepower diesel was the primary motive power for many railroads throughout the 1970’s and 80’s. Introduced on January 1, 1972, the SD40-2 had become the best-selling 6-axle road switcher in history by December 31, 1978. One of the most striking features of the EMD workhorse was its long “back porch” or decking that extended in front and behind the locomotive’s cab. These porches differentiated the SD40-2 from its earlier cousin, the SD35 and were the result of the SD40-2’s requirement for a longer frame, which helped increase the locomotive’s tractive effort
What does Individually Boxed mean?
Individually boxed is how the item originally arrives as. It's original shipping carton.
For example:
All Lionel engines come individually boxed. So they are good to be shipped out right as they come in.
Most MTH engines come boxed in cases of 3 or 2. In rare occasions they are individually boxes. Which means that this engines individually boxes are good to ship as they are, while those coming in cases of 2 or 3 will need to be re-boxed or can have other items shipped in the original shipping carton.
Most rolling stock come in quantities of 2, 4, or 6. This can be re-boxed if the quantities ordered doesn't match the original shipping carton.
