Description
The E8 (2,250 hp, 1949–1954) and E9 (2,400 hp) were the grand finale of EMD's E-unit passenger diesels, leading the UP City fleet, the Burlington Zephyrs and SP's Daylight and Sunset Limited into the 1970s. Broadway Limited's N scale run offers road-specific A and B units — porthole and dynamic-brake locations, steam generators, beacons and grab irons all per prototype — as A/B sets or single units.

The Stealth Series version is a No-Sound / DCC-Ready model that runs on DC out of the box, with a factory-installed speaker and a Next18 interface so you can drop in the sound decoder of your choice; front and rear lights are directional, other lights are on with track power.
