HO SD70M Locomotive Union Pacific Flared #4860 (ATHG71118)

An HO-scale Union Pacific SD70M locomotive with a flared nose, reproduced to UP’s late-model power in the signature white-roof scheme. This highly detailed model captures UP’s distinctive wing-nose design, white cab roof, a GPS dome, and assorted antennas, and is offered in three road numbers to diversify a UP roster.

Built for realistic operation on modern HO layouts, it rides on a heavy die-cast frame with a Genesis 5-pole skew-wound motor and all-wheel drive for strong, smooth pulling. It features see-through cab windows with a full interior, fine-scale Celcon handrails, wire grab irons, and body-mounted scale knuckle couplers compatible with Kadee. LED lighting adds to the lifelike appearance, and the model is DCC-ready with Quick Plug and a 21-pin NEM connector; sound-equipped versions include onboard Tsunami2 decoders with engine, horn, and bell sounds that operate on both DC and DCC, with full NMRA compatibility in DCC mode. Designed for minimum 18" curves (22" recommended), this UP SD70M brings prototype details like a detailed fuel system and accurate radiator layout to a realistic, robust operating model.
