HO Genesis GP15-1 Locomotive NS #1440 (ATHG-1891)

HO Scale Genesis GP15-1 Diesel Locomotive in Norfolk Southern livery, NS #1440, is a faithful HO-model of EMD’s four-axle GP15-1 switcher. Built for yard work and light road service, this ready-to-run model captures the compact silhouette and prototype detailing of the era, including NS-specific features such as a cab signal box and rear grab irons on 1440.

Designed for realistic operation on HO layouts, the GP15-1 features a heavy die-cast frame for traction, a Genesis driveline with a 5-pole motor, flywheels, and a multi-link drivetrain for smooth, quiet performance. It includes LED lighting, a full cab interior with see-through windows, windscreen wipers, wire grab irons, and fine-scale Celcon handrails, plus body-mounted scale knuckle couplers. DCC-ready Quick Plug technology with a 21-pin NEM connector makes decoder upgrades straightforward, and RP25 wheel contours help it track reliably on popular HO track. Minimum radius is 18 inches, with 22 inches recommended for best results.
