Bulletin: *GE 12cyl 7FDL Early (FT)*

*GE 12cyl 7FDL Early (FT)*

Equipped with ESU "FULL THROTTLE" features!
MUST use LokProgrammer Version 4.4.21 or newer

First introduced in the late 50's, the GE FDL is one of the most popular locomotive prime movers ever produced. Aside from a very few HDL prime movers installed in the AC6000CW's, FDL prime movers were still being put in every new GE locomotive until 2003 when the first Evolution Series was implemented.

Our GE 12cyl 7FDL Early Prime mover would be appropriate for the following locomotives:

U23B
U20C
U23C
U26C

Some newer GE 12cyl 7FDL equipped locomotive had a SLIGHTLY different sound due to a larger exhaust and other hardware. While we will be releasing that sound file shortly (#73438 GE 12cyl 7FDL Modern), this file will be a VERY close substitute until then. Those locomotives would include:

B23-7
BQ23-7
B30-7A
C30-7A

As with all SELECT decoders there are up to 16 separate horns, 2 separate brake squeals and 2 bells included on this one sound profile! All changeable using CV48.
