Due to a manufacturing error, the ditch lights are very dim.
The Dash 8-40CM was introduced in 1990 with a total of 55 units for Canadian National (2400-2454) and 26 units for BC Rail (4601-4626). A further three locomotives (401-403) were built for the QNSL in March 1994. With CN’s purchase of BC Rail came the fleet of Dash 8s, which would see them released into general service across North America. It was not uncommon to see BC Rail Dash 8s operating everywhere on CN's expanded North American network, and even all the way to Florida and Texas.

- Accurately scaled from prototype blueprints

- Heavy, die-cast chassis with a powerful motor and dual flywheels
- Operational headlights and rear lights with operational factory-installed ditch lights (plus rock lights on the BCR locomotives)
- Separate grab irons and handrails installed at the factory
- DC/Silent (Next18 DCC Ready) or DC/DCC/Sound (ESU LokSound)
