Atlas 40000012 N Scale Delaware & Hudson C420 Diesel Locomotive #411 – Model Train Junction: Quality Parts and Art Supplies

Here is an Atlas 40000012 N Scale Delaware & Hudson C420 Diesel Locomotive #411. This locomotive features a durable plastic construction, metal wheels, plastic trucks, detailed trimming & knuckle couplers. New to this run of our C420 model is the high short hood. All high hood models on this run represent phase 1 locomotives originally owned by the Long Island Rail Road (LI). Long Island purchased their first C420s in 1963. When the lease expired in 1976 these units were initially sent to storage on the Delaware & Hudson (D&H) and Morristown & Erie railroads. Some were leased by the D&H for a short time. Later they would be sold to various short lines and industrial railroads throughout North America, three of which are represented on this run. Many locomotives being offered on this run are related, as the road names represent different eras in the life of a given unit. The first and most obvious are Lehigh Valley 404 and 408 which became Delaware & Hudson 404 and 408. More complex are the histories of two particular Long Island Rail Road units. LI 200 was sold to Virginia & Maryland (VAMD) where it kept this road number. It was later sold to Livonia Avon & Lakeville where it was renumbered 420 and is still in operation today. LI 221 was also sold to VAMD, becoming 202.
