The HO EMD SD90MAC-H Phase 2 Locomotive is a highly detailed model equipped with DCC and Sound, showcasing the EMDX Legendary Liveries #9600. Introduced in 1995, this locomotive was designed to be a powerful single-engine diesel vehicle, originally intended to feature a 6000 horsepower engine; however, it was delivered with a modified 4300 horsepower version due to technical issues. Despite these challenges, these locomotives have shown remarkable longevity, with many still in service today.

Features such as working number boards, ground lights, and several separately applied details add realism.
