Built to modernize “America’s Railroad,” the new Amtrak Cities Sprinters have state-of-the-art features such as regenerative braking that can feed energy back into the power grid. The latest generation of electrics for the Northeast Corridor, the ACS-64 can reach speeds of 125 mph. Bachmann’s feature-packed model reflects the innovative technology of the prototype. Our ACS-64 includes a TCS WOWSound CD-Quality 16-bit 44,100Hz decoder with Audio Assist for easy configuration without programming CVs as well as a Keep-Alive  device for uninterrupted operation, even over dirty track.
