HO SD70ACe Locomotive Union Pacific D&RGW #1989 (ATHG75740)

HO-scale SD70ACe locomotive in Union Pacific heritage livery honoring the Rio Grande (DRGW) No. 1989. This highly detailed model reproduces UP's heritage paint schemes introduced in 2005–06 to celebrate absorbed roads, giving HO layouts a striking and authentic centerpiece. Realistic touches such as PTC antenna roofs, animated roller bearing caps, and re-tooled plows with grab irons mirror the prototype's distinctive appearance.

Powered by a Genesis diesel drivetrain with a heavy die-cast frame and eight-wheel drive, it delivers smooth pulling power and quiet operation, with all-wheel electrical pickup and RP25-contoured wheels for reliable performance on common HO track. It arrives fully assembled and ready to run, with DCC-ready Quick Plug plug-and-play technology (21-pin NEM) and LED lighting. Sound-equipped versions add Tsunami2 sound with dual speakers and full DCC functionality, enabling authentic engine, horn, and bell sounds, while CV adjustments let modelers tailor performance. Realistic detailing includes see-through cab windows, etched steps, walkways, fine handrails, and a detailed fuel system that enhances the model’s presence on the railroad.
