This detailed Atlas Master Silver EMD GP40 Low Nose, No Dynamic Brakes diesel locomotive is based on the popular 3,000-horsepower road units introduced in the late 1960s. Production of these popular diesels ran through the early 1970s when they were succeeded by the GP40-2. Many of the GP40 carbody units are still in service in 2018, although often their interior components may have been rebuilt or upgraded. This scale EMD GP40 N Scale replica comes equipped with a replaceable lighting board to facilitate conversion to DCC and sound when you're ready. Other features of the EMD GP40 include a Scale Speed(TM) motor with dual flywheels, directional golden-white LED lighting and AccuMate(R) magnetic knuckle couplers.
