The Intermountain ET44AC DCC Kansas City Southern 5008 is a highly detailed HO scale model of the GE ET44AC Tier 4 GEVO locomotive, combining authentic railroad-specific details with powerful performance and advanced DCC operation. Officially licensed from GE, this model continues InterMountain's tradition of producing finely detailed modern diesel locomotives with accurate paint, printing, and prototype-based features.
The locomotive features an all-new Tier 4 drive designed for smooth, heavy, and powerful operation. Weighing approximately 1.6 pounds and equipped with a larger motor, the model provides dependable performance for operating sessions. Finely molded parts, laser-sharp painting and printing, and accurately represented miniature labels add to its realistic appearance.

Features include front and rear headlights, correctly scaled front and rear ditch lights, number boards, and front and rear walkway lights.

Additional details include spinning bearing caps on all six axles, accurate GE-style traction motor details, wheel flange lubricator details, dark cab side window tint, etched metal radiator and dynamic brake grilles, separate underframe piping, and realistic brake and tow chains. Road-specific details may include handrails, walkway steps, PTC antenna arrays, horns, and other prototype-specific components.
For DCC operation, non-sound locomotives released after February 2021 are factory equipped with ESU LokPilot 5 DCC decoders. This makes the Intermountain ET44AC DCC Kansas City Southern 5008 an excellent choice for model railroaders seeking a modern locomotive with authentic detailing, reliable performance, realistic lighting, and factory-installed DCC capability.
