While many internal upgrades were introduced (such as the use of improved, modular Dash 2 electrical components), there were some external differences between the early production GP40-2 and late-production GP40. This included an engine water-level sight glass on the right side of the body (a feature common to all EMD Dash 2 models), a larger electrical cabinet air filter box, a lengthened battery compartment on the left side, and a slightly modified cab. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e All GP40-2s featured a 16-cylinder EMD 645-series diesel engine which was rated at 3,000 horsepower. Early to mid-production phase 2 GP40-2s were built from mid-1976 through late-1979. Several major spotting features of Phase 2 units include: an 88\" low nose, corrugated radiator grilles and notched step wells. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e Features:\u003cbr\u003e Golden-white LEDs\u003cbr\u003e Realistic die-cast underframe\u003cbr\u003e Five-pole skewed armature motor with dual flywheels for optimum performance at all speeds\u003cbr\u003e Directional lighting\u003cbr\u003e Factory-equipped with AccuMate knuckle couplers\u003cbr\u003e Detailed cab interior with crew\u003cbr\u003e Separately-installed scale windshield wipers, metal grab irons and fine scale handrails\u003cbr\u003e Movable drop steps\u003cbr\u003e Walkway safety tread\u003cbr\u003e Coupler cut bars\u003cbr\u003e Multiple unit hoses and trainline hoses\u003cbr\u003e Snowplow \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e Additional features include:\u003cbr\u003e Etched metal radiator and dynamic brake fans (included where appropriate per road name)\u003cbr\u003e Dynamic Brake options: standard range, extended range or non-dynamic brake hatch used where appropriate per road name\u003cbr\u003e 3,600 gallon fuel tank \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e Undecorated units information:\u003cbr\u003e Dynamic Brake Part: standard range and non-dynamic brake hatch\u003cbr\u003e Hood and frame bells included\u003cbr\u003e 3,600 and 2,600 Gallon fuel tanks included\u003cbr\u003e Trucks: Blomberg Type-M only\u003cbr\u003e The handrails will NOT be attached to the frame and will be packed separately \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e Analog (DC) Operation Features:\u003cbr\u003e The LokSound Select Dual-Mode decoder allows your Atlas Gold Series locomotive to be used on DC as well as on DCC layouts\u003cbr\u003e Please note that the Atlas Quantum Engineer will NOT operate an Atlas Gold Series locomotive equipped with a LokSound Select decoder on an analog (DC) layout.
