HO GP50 Locomotive UP Ex-MP #977 (ATH-1513)

HO GP50 Locomotive in Union Pacific livery (ex-Missouri Pacific), road number 977. This ready-to-run HO-scale model captures the GP50’s distinctive profile and pairs modern detailing with reliable operation on a layout. It’s part of the Legendary Liveries line, offering iconic paint schemes, and it features factory-installed Celcon handrails, individually applied wire-form grab irons, see-through cab windows, and LED headlights, ditch lights, and beacons where applicable to the prototype. The model is DCC Ready with a 21-pin NEM socket for decoder installation.

Inside, a 5-pole motor with precision flywheels and a multi-link drive delivers smooth, quiet operation, supported by all-wheel drive and reliable electrical pickup. A heavy die-cast frame provides traction and pulling power, while separately-applied horns, McHenry operating-scale knuckle couplers, and RP25-contoured, nickel-plated wheels help it run cleanly on most brands of track. Fully assembled and decorated with a highly detailed injection-molded body, it’s designed for HO layouts with minimum radii of 18 inches (22 inches recommended) and replacement parts are available to keep it running smoothly.
