HO EMD SD90MAC-H Phase 2 Locomotive with DCC and Sound UP #8547 (ATHG-1043)

The HO EMD SD90MAC-H Phase 2 Locomotive is a highly detailed model designed for railroad enthusiasts. This locomotive is equipped with DCC and sound, specifically labeled UP #8547. Originally introduced in 1995, the EMD SD90MAC was intended to be one of the most powerful single-engine diesel locomotives, featuring an innovative 265H prime mover. However, early units were delivered with the 4300 horsepower EMD 710G prime mover due to ongoing technical issues, leading to the longevity of the 710G units in service.

The Athearn Genesis version of the SD90MAC complements the complex functional design with cutting-edge detailing, including working number boards and ground lights, along with numerous separately-applied details on the body. With its heavy die-cast frame, the model offers substantial pulling power combined with performance enhancements typical for modern rail models.
