HO EMD Model 40 Locomotive Yellow Shop Goat #11 (ATH28743)

An HO-scale EMD Model 40 Locomotive paired with a yellow Shop Goat offers a realistic engine setup plus a practical helper for moving locomotives around the workshop. The Shop Goat is a compact accessory designed to couple with locomotives, making repositioning safe and easy so hobbyists can service or rearrange their layout without heavy lifting.

The Model 40 locomotive arrives fully assembled and ready to run, featuring a detailed injection-molded body with separately applied horn, exhaust stacks and bell, see-through cab windows, and Celcon handrails. It includes LED lighting, Quick Plug DCC-ready technology, and bi-directional headlights to maintain consistent brightness. A heavy die-cast frame and all-wheel drive deliver smooth, quiet pulling power, while McHenry scale knuckle couplers and RP25 wheels ensure reliable operation on a broad range of HO track. The design supports a minimum 15-inch radius for typical layouts. Prototype notes explain the Model 40 was built by EMC/EMD between 1940 and 1943, a small two-axle diesel-electric nicknamed “critters” with eleven units produced for defense plants, military users, and corporate customers.
