Product Overview

Introduced by General Electric in 2002 as part of the groundbreaking Evolution Series, the ES44 family quickly became one of the defining locomotives of modern North American railroading. Nearly 8,000 Evolution Series locomotives were ultimately produced, and many remain in heavy mainline service today.

Broadway Limited's latest HO scale ES44AC represents a major step forward for the model. Unlike previous BLI GEVO releases, this production features all-new die-cast tooling, following the construction approach used on Broadway Limited's popular HO scale SD70ACe. The heavy die-cast body and chassis provide substantial weight and tractive effort while metal handrails, road-specific details, etched-metal components, and fine decoration bring the exterior to life.

This production also introduces an especially colorful collection of contemporary schemes, including Norfolk Southern Landmark locomotives, America 250 commemorative units from Norfolk Southern, BNSF and Canadian National, and Union Pacific's distinctive Building America scheme. Together, they showcase some of the most recognizable special-purpose locomotive artwork on today's railroad.

Landmark, America 250 & Modern Schemes

The production includes Norfolk Southern's Chicago and Altoona Landmark units along with NS No. 8118 in the Stars & Stripes America 250 treatment. BNSF is represented by three America 250 locomotives carrying the highly symbolic road numbers 250, 1776 and 2026.

Canadian National joins the celebration with No. 1776 in the Screaming Eagle design and No. 2026 in the Air Force One scheme, while Union Pacific is represented by two ES44ACs in its well-known Building America graphics.

Whether you're modeling contemporary Class I freight operations, assembling a collection of commemorative locomotives, or celebrating America's 250th anniversary through modern railroad equipment, this production offers a remarkable variety of distinctive ES44ACs.

Why We Love This Model

The ES44AC has become one of the signature locomotives of today's railroad, and this production combines that familiar modern prototype with some truly exceptional paint schemes. We especially like the move to heavy die-cast construction—it gives these locomotives the substantial feel and pulling capability that a modern six-axle road locomotive deserves. The Stealth configuration is also a great option for modelers who want that same premium construction and detailing while choosing their own decoder and sound setup later.
