HO SD70M Locomotive UP Flared #4863 (ATHG71119)
HO SD70M Union Pacific Locomotive with a flared radiator nose is a detailed HO-scale model designed to reproduce late-era UP power. It features Union Pacific's signature livery with a white cab roof, a two-panel flared radiator body, and authentic front lighting, while see-through cab windows reveal a full interior. Subtle prototypical touches—GPS dome, antennas, round ditch lights, and scale handrails—enhance realism, and the model is offered in three road numbers to diversify a Union Pacific roster.
Built for dependable operation, this SD70M combines a heavy die-cast frame and all-wheel drive with LED lighting and scale wheels for smooth, quiet performance on HO layouts. It’s DCC-ready with Quick Plug plug-and-play technology and a 21-pin NEM connector, and many versions support Kadee-scale couplers. Sound-equipped variants add onboard Tsunami2 sound that runs in both DC and DCC, with full NMRA-compliant functionality and programmable CVs. The model captures key prototype details from the SD70M evolution, delivering a convincing Union Pacific powerhouse with ready-to-run ease. Minimum radius 18 inches, with 22 inches recommended for best performance.
