Highlights!
- GENESIS H0 SD70 Series Diesel Locomotive!
The Athearn Genesis EMD SD70 Series impresses with its prototypical representation of the modern U.S. freight locomotive. Built starting in 1992, the EMD SD70 family ranks among North America’s most successful diesel locomotives. With its modern technology, it shaped heavy freight service for many major U.S. railroads and can still be found on North American rail lines today. - GENESIS H0 EMD GP7/GP9!
The GENESIS EMD GP7/GP9 faithfully reproduces a true classic of U.S. diesel locomotive history. Finely crafted details and a smooth-running drive make this model a highlight of any U.S.-themed layout. With the GP7, built starting in 1949, and the more powerful GP9, EMD made railway history.
