N SD70M Locomotive Flat Radiator UP #1979 with Sound (KAT1761979S)

This is an N-scale SD70M flat-radiator Union Pacific locomotive, road number 1979, designed to bring UP’s modern freight power to an N-gauge layout. It’s available in a sound-equipped version, including a commemorative “We Are One” livery, making it a striking centerpiece for UP-focused layouts and realistic operation on your railroad.

Inside, it features a robust five-pole drive with dual brass flywheels for smooth pulling, plus directional headlights and illuminated number boards for authentic day or night operation. A magnetic knuckle coupler keeps rolling stock aligned, while the mechanism is DCC-friendly and drop-in decoder ready, compatible with popular systems and with LokSound options available by special order. The model uses all-wheel electrical pickup and blackened metal wheels on HTCR Phase II–style trucks to deliver reliable power and an authentic appearance on the rails.
