Since its introduction in 1966, EMD's GP40 has been a favorite with North American railroads. This all-new HO Scale model is a fitting tribute to this rugged freight diesel.
 
The models are fully assembled and include dynamic brakes or nondynamic hatches, along with the correct 2600 or 3600 gallon fuel tanks, to match the prototype. Standard features include cab interior with crew figures, windshield wipers, metal grab irons, fine scale handrails, moveable drop steps, safety tread walkways, coupler cut bars, MU lines and trainline air hose, which are all separately applied. For additional detailing to match your favorite road, an optional pilot plow, engine compartment air vents and an electrical cabinet air filter (ECAFB) box are provided for you to install if desired. All models come with Accumate(R) working knuckle couplers.
 
A painted and lettered unit with no unit number is also available for each roadname, making it easy to model any loco on the roster. For do-it-yourself builders, an undecorated model is available which comes with both dynamic brake and nondynamic brake details.
 
Engines are equipped with the Atlas DCC-ready operating mechanism, which features a five-pole, skewed armature motor with dual flywheels, directional lighting and a realistic diecast underframe.
