Check Out Aurora Miniatures Exclusive Cn 5543 Ho Scale Gmd Sd60f Diesel Locomotive 50% Off - Today Only [YXIQHKmo]

Now available exclusive to the Aurora Miniatures NA Store is the HO scale GMD SD60F Diesel Locomotive road number CN 5543! Each model is tested to ensure they operate well prior to shipment.

CN 5543 was the last GMD SD60F to be retired by Canadian National and we are pleased to offer this road number in model form. Available in DCC sound only and in extremely limited quantities.

The SD60Fs were built by General Motors Diesel (GMD) in London, Ontario, Canada between 1985 and 1989. It is a unique Canadian variant of the popular EMD SD60 series 6-axle diesel-electric freight locomotives, featuring a full-width cowl body and cab, with a tapered section immediately behind the cab for improved rear visibility. A total of 64 ‘Draper Taper’ units were built, all for the Canadian National Railway. They saw extensive mainline freight service on the CN network across Canada and in the United States. All units were retired by CN in 2017 and several units are still being used by second-hand owners today.

Aurora’s HO SD60F follows the footsteps of its previously-released HO scale locomotives of foreign prototypes. The model is designed from the ground up and manufactured with the most cutting-edge technology available today. It comes completely assembled, ready to run, with optional DCC and sound functionality.
