From the maker

To call the Silver Streak Zephyr famous before its time would be to do the all-corrugated, slick stainless steel train a disservice. Named after a movie of the same name which featured the CB&Qs distinctive corrugated equipment, the Silver Streak Zephyr and its specially built EMD E5A unit Silver Bullet was a short distance luxury train that operated between Lincoln, Nebraska and Kansas City with stops in Omaha and St. Joseph. Like the train it pulled, the EMD E5A was a unique piece of equipment – specially built just for the CB&Q so that they could have a locomotive which matched their Budd built corrugated cars, the EMD E5A was wrapped in shining stainless steel and ribbed with corrugated fluting that gave the CB&Qs trains an unmatched streamlined look. Model Features: Locomotive: Equipped with a mix of body and truck mounted KATO magnetic knuckle couplers Locomotive: Directional Golden White LED headlights and illuminated preprinted number boards Locomotive: Drop in DCC compatible with the Train Control Systems K0D8-E Decoder Cars: Smooth rolling blackened metal wheels with all-wheel electrical pickup Cars: Ability to be lit with optional installation of #11-211/212 Interior Light Kit with White LED (Light Kit with White LED is DCC friendly). Cars: Illuminated marker lights on tail car
