Description
This HO-scale G2 SD90MAC-H Phase I locomotive with DCC and sound captures Union Pacific’s Phase I power in UP livery, road number 8512, for authentic operation on an HO layout.
Originating from the 8500-series batch delivered between 1997 and 1999 before the fleet was renumbered to the 8900s, this unit reflects the era’s detailing. In particular, 8512 is modeled with the starter capacitor removed and the end-of-train device moved forward on the fuel tank, a level of prototype fidelity carried over to this model. With DCC and sound, it delivers realistic performance and road-number accuracy for UP fans assembling an era-accurate roster on their layout.
