HO GP40-2 Locomotive SP #7625 (ATHG-1736)
HO-scale GP40-2 Locomotive in Southern Pacific No. 7625 livery is a faithful model of EMD’s GP40-2, the 3,000-horsepower diesel introduced in the early 1970s to deliver higher horsepower and faster service. This SP rendition reproduces the as-delivered look, including a cab-roof bell, standard exhaust, and split battery-box doors, with a detailed fuel tank and a see-through cab that reveals a full interior. A heavy die-cast frame and Genesis driveline provide sturdy traction and smooth, quiet operation on HO layouts, while LED lighting adds to the realism during both day and night operation.
Designed for modern layouts, the GP40-2 supports DC and DCC operation and is ready for quick, plug-and-play setup with a 21-pin NEM DCC connector. It rides on RP25 wheel contours for reliable tracking on common HO track and uses body-mounted scale knuckle couplers compatible with Kadee. Finely crafted details include etched fan grilles, fine-scale handrails, and realistic fuel-tank details, with options such as see-through cab interiors and lit number boards and cab lights for an authentic silhouette. Depending on the road-number and scheme, variations in the GP40-2 lineup include features like gyralights and other prototype-specific touches, all built to a minimum 18-inch radius to navigate typical HO curves on most layouts.
