HO EMD GP38-2 Diesel Locomotive w/ DCC - Missouri Pacific #959 (BAC61724)

This HO-scale Missouri Pacific GP38-2 diesel locomotive with DCC, Missouri Pacific #959, faithfully reproduces General Motors Electro-Motive Division’s General Purpose road switcher. Designed for reliable, versatile freight service on HO-model railroads, the GP38-2 remains a mainstay of real-world railroading, and this model captures its authentic styling in a compact 8.5-inch-long body.

Built with a die-cast frame and all-wheel drive, the locomotive features a meticulously painted shell with roadname-specific graphics, directional headlights, and detailed, separately applied handrails, uncoupling levers, and horn. See-through trucks with detailed sideframes, plus magnetically operated E-Z Mate Mark II couplers on both ends, help deliver realistic operation. A factory-installed 8-pin DCC socket enables installation of a decoder of choice, and the model rides on RP25 blackened metal wheels for smooth, reliable performance. Designed for HO layouts using 18-inch radius curves or larger, it offers clear cab windows and authentic brake configurations to match the Missouri Pacific scheme.
