Features include dual can motors, an electronic 3-position forward-neutral-reverse unit, directional lighting, dual roller power pickups, operating metal knuckle couplers, metal railings, decorative horns and metal wheels. It is compatible with all Lionel, K-line, MTH, Atlas, Williams and Weaver electric trains and is perfect for use on all O and O-27 3-Rail model train layouts. It is 9.5 Inches long and operates on minimum O-27 curves.

Road Name: US Coast Guard Scale/Era: O Modern Model Type: Diesel Locomotive. The RMT (Ready Made Trains) US Coast Guard Diesel Locomotive is a highly popular O-gauge model. Produced as part of their BEEP (sub-compact GP-9 style) line, this locomotive-typically #1790 or #1979-features a vibrant white and red Coast Guard livery and is heavily sought after by model railroaders. The RMT "Beep" is cherished in O-scale model railroading because it perfectly balances affordability, robust dual-motor performance, and the ability to navigate tight O-27 curves that standard, longer locomotives cannot handle.
