The Atlas Product Spotlight - O E8 Locomotives

With the rollout of the E8 in 1949, the E-unit, America’s most popular passenger diesel, reached its final visual form — just in time for the last hurrah of the American passenger train. With twin motors to ensure reliability and six-wheel trucks that rode like a Cadillac, the E8 was an engineer’s dream. For hoggers who had not long ago worked in steam locomotives, the clean cab of an E-unit with its lofty, panoramic view of the road ahead was not hard to get used to.

The guaranteed order deadline for the O E8 Locomotives is June 7, 2023. Click here to find an Authorized Atlas Dealer near you.
