The Atchison, Topeka and Santa Fe Railway stretched from Chicago to the Gulf of Mexico and the Pacific Ocean. Almost everywhere in the Midwest and the Southwest, Santa Fe trains were a part of daily life, carrying passengers and freight for more than a century. Santa Fe diesels hustled freight across plains, through deserts, and over mountains until 1996, when the AT&SF merged with the Burlington Northern to form the Burlington Northern Santa Fe - which is today one of America's largest and most successful railroads.

Move the freight on your own railroad with this colorful set, headed by a powerful diesel decorated in the Santa Fe's classic "warbonnet" paint scheme. The Proto-Sound version of this set features digital sound and the revolutionary speed control found only in M.T.H. locomotives. Add extra cars for even more fun - this locomotive has plenty of power to pull them
