This is Fox Valley Models 70461 N NS ES44AC #8097. GE ES44AC, Norfolk Southern #8097 (black, white), standard DC. Named as one of the 10 Locomotives That Changed Railroading by industry publication Trains Magazine the GE Evolution Series is a line of diesel locomotives built by GE Transportation Systems, designed to meet the U.S. EPA's Tier 2 locomotive emissions standards that took effect in 2005. The ES44AC (Evolution Series, 4400 HP, AC traction), specifically, is meant to replace the AC4400CW model in GE's range. Starting with the popular GEVO loco, these N Scale models now sport an improved nose with a notch where the headlights are normally placed, along with a four-window cab with a headlight above the windshield; although these changes are not quite 100% perfect for NS units, the prototype locos have had many changes to their features during production as well.
Its key features are:
Having roadname appropriate detailing including headlight position and truck side frames
Dual flywheel-equipped mechanism for smooth operation
Six-pin DCC decoder socket for easy conversion (decoder sold separately)
