Athearn GENESIS | HO scale (1:87) | diesel locomotives | DCC/sound

SD9043MAC
Union Pacific, UP #8044

DCC/sound | SoundTraxx Tsunami

During the horsepower race of the 1990’s, EMD offered an “upgradable” SD90MAC. EMD’s 6000hp 256H prime mover was still being tested for reliability and issues at the time and UP needed power quickly. To combat this, EMD offered the SD90 with the 4300hp 710 prime mover in it’s place until the 256H prime mover was ready to be installed after successful testing. Unfortunately, the 256H was deemed too problematic and the conversion was never completed. UP classed these as SD9043MAC’s. They were factory delivered with the “We Will Deliver” slogan.

In 2021, CP went on the used locomotive market and purchased a small batch of ex-UP SD9043MAC’s. These were quickly patched still in their UP numbers, and released into service.

CP 3747 was neatly re-lettered with CP initials and still features the American Flag on its flanks.

Athearn GENESIS G2 HO | Dash 9-44CW, UP #9719

[ATHG31523] DC standard / DCC Ready 21-pin socket

One of Union Pacific’s hallmarks is their eclectic collection of motive power. However, the venerable Dash 9 of the time was ordered in few numbers by the UP - only 40 to be exact. Here we have 4 of those examples depicted late in their careers; repainted “lightning stripe” scheme, yellow frame stripe and wings on the nose. These unique repaints have many nuances; chiefly, they do not feature the American flag on their flanks.

The last stand of the “Standard Cab”, these 4000hp, 1995-built units have earned the railfan nickname of “Top Hats” due to their rooftop mounted air conditioners. NS 8764-8888, a total of 125 units, were the first in a series of yearly NS orders from 1995 to 2005. They have since been retired, with some being used for the AC44C6M rebuild program.

Introduced in the early 1960s, the Trailer Train (now TTX Company) F89F flatcar has been a mainstay of contemporary railroading. A product of Bethlehem Steel Company’s (BSC) Johnstown, PA plant, over 9,000 of these (89’ 8” over the strikers) cars were built throughout the 1960s. Visually distinctive from other long flatcars of their era thanks to their “C” channel side sills, these versatile cars were adapted for many types of service and loadings over the years, ranging from Trailer-On-Flatcar (TOFC), to autoracks, to structural steel loading.

Perhaps one of the most recognizable icons of American railroading, the caboose completed the train. Cabooses provide shelter for crew at the end of a train, who were long required for switching and shunting, and to keep a lookout for load shifting, damage to equipment and cargo, and overheating axles. In the extended-vision or wide-vision caboose, the sides of the cupola project beyond the side of the car body. ..../ continue
