New FEF-3 Greyhound "Racing" to your Local Hobby Shop! 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). The Greyhound scheme dates back to the late 1940�s and was an effort by the UP to unify the color schemes of their engines with their cars, replacing the traditional all black look with a two-tone gray that matched the heavyweight cars of the time, and continued to match with the more recognizable gray and yellow scheme that would come later. A perfect pairing with this new Greyhound release is the 7-Car Union Pacific Excursion Train and Water Tender 2-Car set, also currently available! The UP Excursion Train features a special assortment of UP heritage cars, including the distinctive �Kenefick� Business car and �Promontory� Museum car. All cars are available with pre-installed interior lighting for maximum realism!
