As a prototype, the SD40-2 was the most popular second-generation diesel with sales of over 3000 in the U.S. and more than 700 in Canada. There were many variations of this popular diesel because of the long production run, with Early units representing a pre-1990 appearance and Mid Production units depicting later runs of locomotives.

This Kato N Scale EMD SD40-2 Early Production is based on locomotives beginning in 1972. The EMD SD40-2 went on to become the most popular EMD road locomotive with over 3,900 constructed. This model is based on early production units. Features of this diesel includes a detailed, injection-molded body, five-pole motor with dual flywheels, all-wheel electrical pickup, heavy die cast metal chassis, fine decoration, directional LED headlights and Kato magnetic knuckle couplers.
