The Union Pacific FEF-3 “Greyhound”!

Kato’s premier Union Pacific Steam engine gets a face lift with the release of the long-awaited “Greyhound” paint scheme! With a two-tone gray appearance highlighted by sharp yellow striping, FEF #8444 in the Greyhound paint is sure to set your heart racing with its striking looks and smooth operating performance!

Kato’s N Scale FEF-3 is fully featured with a silky-smooth operating coreless motor design that excels at low crawling speeds as well as high performance pulling, with functioning side-rods that work the drivers just like the real locomotive. The FEF-3 is available as a standard DC engine, with factory installed Digitrax DCC, and with ESU LokSound (as a special order – contact your hobby shop to reserve yours).
