The N scale AC4400CW is one of the most popular trains, be it a model or the real thing. The AC4400CW is simply known for it’s excellent paint, smooth performance, and easy to install parts and the N scale AC4400CW was modeled after that. The AC locomotive transmissions became popular in the 1990s and the AC4400CW was a favorite because it just couldn’t be beat from a lugging power perspective.

The DC systems are still more popular probably because the AC systems such as the N scale AC4400CW are more expensive. But, if you are looking for an N scale train, this is definitely a model you should consider. Of course railroads still favor the classic DC drives, but there are hundreds of AC locomotives out there, and the best selling would be the AC4400CW, which has sold right around three thousand and the N scale AC4400CW model will sell like mad as well. Union Pacific owns a large portion of that number, so these are not trains owned by obscure individuals or companies. There is no doubt among those in the know that the AC4400CW is likely to rank in the top five best selling diesel locomotives of all time when the production run comes to an end, making them a sure thing for model train collectors.

The AC4400CW can be easily spotted in any form, model or real thing, because of the DC-to-AC inverter cabinet on the left side behind the cab. Also, the dynamic brake grids right above the inverter are a dead give away.The Kato N scale AC4400CW model actually represents an early production of the AC4400 with three girds. The N scale AC4400CW model comes packaged with many cool features for the collector to assemble, and the paint and lettering is beautifully crafted, making this train really stand out. At a cost of $105 and up, it’s something you just can’t refuse!

The AC4400 was an impeccable locomotive, which makes them ideal for modeling. Though it’s a bigger locomotive, it’s an awesome addition to any collection. There is no doubt that the N scale AC4400CW will be as popular among modelers as the real locomotive was with the modern railroad.
