Atlas Trainman N 40004978 DCC Ready EMD GP15-1 Locomotive Burlington Northern BN #1379

Built between 1976 and 1982, the EMD GP15-1 4-axle diesel locomotive was powered by a 12-cylinder EMD 645E engine that generated 1,500hp. It was commonly used as a light road switcher or a yard switcher.

A total of 310 units were built for American railroads.

Features:

  • Scale dimensions and details
  • Directional lighting
  • DCC Ready**
  • Blackened metal wheels
  • Dual flywheel equipped 5-pole skewed armature motor with a low friction mechanism
  • Factory-installed AccuMate magnetic knuckle couplers

**Lombard Hobbies Recommendation - As modelers ourselves we highly recommend ONLY running DCC on DCC systems and DC on DC systems, regardless of 'Dual-Mode' capability. This gives optimum performance and safeguards the unit from possible damage from running on a different system than originally intended and from any inexperienced operator errors.

    Recently purchased (2) of these fine locomotives from Lombard Hobby. Installed a ESU LokSound 58751 direct drop-in decoder with a Soberton SP1208 speaker and SBS4DCC baffle. Sound Bulletin S0543 for 12-645E prime mover. Extremely smooth, very quiet, an absolute dream to run on my layout! I would purchase more of these gladly if any are left in stock! ?
