HO GP9 Locomotive #3380 Phase II GRIP Rebuild (ATHG82725)

HO GP9 Locomotive Number 3380 — Phase II GRIP Rebuild is an HO-scale diesel locomotive model that faithfully reproduces the GP9 prototype in its Phase II GRIP rebuild configuration. Fully assembled and ready to run, this model captures the rebuild’s front light package, early modified skirts, and catch-style pilots, along with a detailed cab interior and see-through cab windows for authentic visibility and presentation on any layout.

Built for HO layouts, the locomotive rides on a heavy die-cast frame with Blomberg-B trucks and RP25 wheels for solid traction and smooth operation. It uses a Genesis driveline with a 5-pole motor and all-wheel drive with electrical pickup to ensure reliable performance, and is offered in DCC-ready configurations with Quick Plug plug-and-play technology and a 21-pin NM connector; some versions include onboard Tsunami2 sound with dual speakers for authentic engine, horn, and bell sounds in both DC and DCC operation. With compatibility for standard HO track, a minimum radius of 18 inches (22 inches recommended), and ready-to-run usability, this GP9 rebuild provides a faithful, high-detail representation for serious hobbyists.
