Product Overview
This pre-owned Atlas Master Silver EMD SD60E comes from the store owner's personal collection and remains in excellent condition. Originally offered as a DCC-ready model, it has been upgraded with an ESU LokPilot decoder, giving it refined digital motor control and making it ready for operation on a compatible DCC layout.
Norfolk Southern developed the SD60E program to extend the working life of its SD60 fleet through an extensive rebuilding process at the railroad's Juniata Locomotive Shop in Altoona, Pennsylvania. Beginning in 2010, SD60 cores received major upgrades that included Norfolk Southern's distinctive Crescent Cab, modernized controls, mechanical improvements, and other changes designed to create a more efficient and capable locomotive for continued mainline service.
Norfolk Southern #6963 stands apart in the colorful GORAIL commemorative scheme. GORAIL promotes the economic and environmental benefits of freight rail, and the locomotive's blue, green, black, and white graphics make it one of the most visually distinctive units in the SD60E fleet. For contemporary NS modelers, commemorative locomotive collectors, and anyone looking for a standout modern diesel, #6963 brings immediate visual interest to a consist.
Atlas captured the unique character of the SD60E with its broad Crescent Cab, road-specific details, rooftop PTC antenna array, crisp decoration, and proven smooth-running mechanism. The added ESU LokPilot decoder makes this example especially appealing for operators who want dependable DCC control without the added cost or complexity of sound.
Product Features
Why We Love It
The SD60E is a uniquely Norfolk Southern locomotive, and the dramatic Crescent Cab gives it a profile unlike nearly anything else on a modern railroad. Add the GORAIL commemorative graphics, and #6963 becomes the kind of model that immediately draws attention whether it is leading a train or sitting on display.
This example is especially attractive because it comes from the store owner's carefully maintained collection and has already been upgraded with an ESU LokPilot decoder. That provides smooth, dependable DCC operation while preserving the option to add sound later using the model's factory-installed speaker setup.
Add a Standout Norfolk Southern Locomotive
Bring one of Norfolk Southern's most distinctive commemorative locomotives to your N scale railroad. With its bold GORAIL scheme, unique SD60E body, excellent condition, and installed ESU LokPilot decoder, #6963 is ready to become a memorable part of your modern diesel roster.
