In 1982, they purchased 30 GP15AC’s (MP 1715-1744) which use AC power for the traction motors instead of the traditional DC power. Other than 4 units built for Venezuelan National Railways, MP was the only other purchaser of this model. Most can still be found working today for their current owner Union Pacific, used in local and yard duties.

Intended to provide an alternative to the rebuilding programs that many railroads were applying to their early road switchers, it is generally employed as a yard switcher or light road switcher. A total of 310 units were built for American railroads. A number of GP15-1s remain in service today for yard work and light road duty.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"text-align: center;\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 14pt;\"\u003e\u003cstrong style=\"color: #ff0000;\"\u003e\u003cem\u003eLombard Hobbies - Big Inventory ∙\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: #ff0000;\"\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cstrong style=\"color: #ff0000;\"\u003e\u003cem\u003eValue \u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cstrong style=\"color: #ff0000;\"\u003e\u003cem\u003ePricing ∙ Fast Shipping ∙ Great Service\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Athearn HO","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":67588906516633,"sku":"ATHG-1889","price":179.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0685\/8847\/0425\/files\/ATHG-1889_A0_5L29TPYE.jpg?v=1790635962","url":"https:\/\/lombardhobby.com\/products\/athearn-genesis-ho-athg-1888-dcc-ready-emd-gp15-1-locomotive-missouri-pacific-mp-1716-copy","provider":"Lombard Hobbies","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
