## About This Content
As part of GE Transportation Systems’ Dash 8 Series, the popular Dash8-40C is
one of the most popular locomotives in the series, and is now available for
Train Simulator.

Built by General Electric between 1987 and 1992, more than 500 Dash8-40C
locomotives entered service for a number of US railroad companies. The Series
was the first to be fitted with a microprocessor equipped engine control
system, which was later to be adopted on a number of diesel locomotives.

With an output of 4,000hp and a top speed of 68mph (109 km/h), the Dash 8 was
considered a heavy duty freight locomotive and was fitted with standard GE
equipment, including dynamic braking but without display screens, preferring
to retain old style gauges and dials on a tall console in the driver’s cab.

Alongside CSX Transportation and Union Pacific, Norfolk Southern originally
purchased 89 units and inherited more Dash 8s from Conrail when the two
railroads merged. The Dash8-40C for Train Simulator recreates the original
locomotive with narrow nose as it operates for Norfolk Southern.

Features of the model include instrument and cab lighting, dynamic braking and
Norfolk Southern coal gondolas.

The locomotive is also Quick Drive compatible, giving you the freedom to drive
the Norfolk Southern Dash8-40C on any Quick Drive enabled route for Train
Simulator, such as those available through Steam. Also included are scenarios
specifically for the Norfolk Southern Coal District route (available
separately and required to play these scenarios).
