Overview:

The "Black Beetle" returns! Based off the storied experimental locomotive from the 1960s, this Jet RDC rockets it way back to our lineup with LionChief Plus 2.0 features. The short-lived Jet RDC hit record speeds of 183 miles per hour, thanks to the added power only two B-36 bomber jet engines could supply. While the plan to run this engine for high speed commuter rail was scrapped for multiple good reasons, we couldn't help but have fun with some "what-if" fantasy schemes in prototypical road names as well as a Christmas version, STAR WARS™ and Looney Tunes schemes!
