HO MP15AC Locomotive UPY #1488 (ATHG66265)

HO MP15AC Locomotive in Union Pacific livery is a detailed, ready-to-run HO-scale model of a compact EMD switcher, designed to bring realistic yard and mainline operation to modern layouts. It faithfully reproduces the MP15AC’s AC-drive design and UP’s distinctive yellow frame stripe, while offering a full cab interior, see-through windows, wire grab irons, and other finely rendered details that bring the prototype to life. Built on a heavy die-cast frame with all-wheel drive and reliable current pickup, it delivers steady pulling power and smooth, quiet operation on HO tracks, even on curves as tight as 18 inches.

Under the hood, the MP15AC offers options for DC operation or DCC readiness, including a Quick Plug plug-and-play 21-pin NEM connector. Sound-equipped variants feature a SoundTraxx Tsunami2 decoder with dual speakers for authentic engine, horn, and bell sounds, with all functions NMRA-compatible in DCC mode. The model uses a Genesis driveline with a 5-pole motor, RP25 wheel contours, and finely detailed features such as photo-etched handrails and separately applied parts, plus Kadee-compatible knuckle couplers. It ships fully assembled and ready to run, delivering a faithful Union Pacific prototype on HO tracks and compatibility with 18-inch minimum-radius curves.
