Product Information

The GP, or General Purpose, class was introduced in 1949. General Motors built more than 4,000 GP models for more than 45 railroads over the next twelve years. This locomotive is so versatile that many railroads rebuilt them and continue to use them today, over 40 years later. Ours is true to scale size, and will operate on curves as tight as 0-27.
