NRE 2GS14B (DGNO)

These are N scale 3D printable files for the National Railway Equipment (NRE) 2GS14B Genset Locomotive in Dallas, Garland & Northeastern Railroad (DGNO) markings, based on units DGNO 140 and 141. Designed to fit on an Atlas B23-7 frame.

The NRE 2GS14B is a genset locomotive — a modern diesel-electric design in which multiple smaller diesel generator sets replace the single large prime mover of a conventional locomotive. Rather than running one large engine at all times, a genset locomotive activates only as many generator sets as the current workload demands, shutting down the others to save fuel and reduce emissions. The result is a locomotive that is significantly more fuel-efficient and environmentally cleaner than the older road switchers it typically replaces in short line and industrial switching service, while delivering comparable tractive effort for the yard and local freight work that defines most short line operations. The 2GS14B designation indicates a two-genset configuration with 1,400 horsepower per genset, giving the locomotive a total output suited to the switching and light road work typical of short line railroads.

The Dallas, Garland & Northeastern Railroad is a short line railroad operating in the Dallas–Fort Worth metroplex of northeastern Texas, providing freight switching and local service in one of the fastest-growing industrial and logistics corridors in the United States. The DGNO's 140 and 141 represent the railroad's investment in modern, efficient motive power well-suited to the demands of urban and suburban short line operation, where fuel efficiency and reduced emissions are increasingly important considerations.

A compelling modern-era short line subject and an excellent model for any layout depicting contemporary railroad operations in the American Southwest.
