New N Scale Commuter Locomotives 

A perfect Companion piece! 

N EMD F40PH Chicago Metra 


The new Chicago Metra EMD F40PH goes great with the Chicago Metra 3-Car Bookcase set, item #106-8702! 

Even if modelers already have the #106-8701 basic MP36PH set, the 106-8702 will let them expand their train lines 

with additional cars and locomotives for operating multiple trains! 

The devil is in the details… 

This new N scale EMD F40PH has a number of Metra-specific tooling changes which serve to make it more 

accurate to its real world counterpart – from the protruding ditch light housings and directional tail lights (which, 

like the N Scale MP36PH, are directional to allow push-pull operation!) to the RV air conditioner units and 

rotated vents on the top of the roof, everything has been carefully replicated in fine, meticulous detail.
