Introduced in 1963, the 2500-horsepower GP35 was one of the last locomotives to feature EMDs 567 engine. The locomotives were used in mainline freight service by railroads across the continent, and, following remanufacturing, many are still in service today. These high-nose locomotives also come equipped with Blomberg or AAR Type B trucks as appropriate for each roadname. Other features include two flywheel-equipped motors, directional headlights and markers; correct details for each roadname and more.
