DF4DK Diesel Locomotive HO Scale (DCC Equipped) No.3

The DF4DK is a high-speed passenger variant of the DF4D series. Initially, they were equipped with a 4555hp 16V240ZJE motor, but this was later superseded with the more reliable and efficient type 16V240ZJD, although power was decreased to 4000hp.

All DF4DK's are numbered in the 3000 series and can usually be identified by other members of the DF4D family by their attractive tiger stripe livery (although the DF4DF also wears this color scheme). Well over 300 units were built with the first ones entering service in the late 1990's. The class is spread throughout China working both long-distance and local passenger trains, with the larger concentrations being in the Beijing, Shanghai, Shenyang and Harbin areas.
