Description
HO GP15-1 locomotive Missouri Pacific 1562 is a faithful HO-scale replica of EMD’s GP15-1 switcher, designed for yard work and light road service on model rail layouts. Rendered in Missouri Pacific livery, road number 1562 features road-number-specific details such as a front pilot stripe, a blue MP logo patch on the cab, and Blomberg M trucks for an authentic MP appearance.
Built for realistic operation, this GP15-1 includes operating class lights and number boards, see-through cab windows with a full interior, and a detailed fuel tank. It rides on a heavy die-cast frame with an all-wheel-drive Genesis driveline, fine-scale Celcon handrails, and body-mounted knuckle couplers for steady pulling power. DCC-ready Quick Plug 21-pin NEM connectivity supports digital control, and sound-equipped variants add Tsunami2 onboard sound with dual speakers and full DCC functionality. LED lighting, RP25 wheel contours, and era-accurate detailing complete the package for HO layouts, which suit minimum radii of 18 inches (22 inches recommended).
