The General Electic P42 locomotive is also known as the "Genesis" locomotive. New $149.68 (24% off). The P42 is a modern 4200 horsepower passenger locomotive used across the United States and Canada. Amtrak's P42 has replaced the EMD F40PH in revenue service and today they are used throughout the United States. Since their introduction, they have had a number of physical revisions to improve the ease of maintenance and parts replacements, including a bolt-on fiberglass nose panel (replacing the original's solid metal which was difficult to repair or replace) and a new headlight bezel that is more rounded than the previous square versions.

As a prototype, the SD40-2 was the most popular second-generation diesel with sales of over 3000 in the U.S. New $89.20 (24% off). and more than 700 in Canada. There were many variations of this popular diesel because of the long production run - Early units featured an 81 nose, chicken wire grills and a ratchet brake vs. a brake wheel that would be found on later units. C&NW #6847 and #6858 would carry the as delivered paint scheme that adorns them through their entire operational life, with #6847 remaining operational to this day at the Illinois Railway Museum in Union, IL.

While originally designed to house a 6000hp engine, technical difficulties resulted in many SD90MAC's being equipped with a 4300hp engine instead, which gave them the designation SD90/43MAC. New $86.94 (24% off). The locomotives were reliable and effective enough with these engines that though the option to upgrade was given, most locomotives kept the as-shipped 4300hp AC traction engine. Today, the Indiana Rail Road operates 14 SD90/43MACs leased from CEFX, using them to primarily pull coal trains from Indiana mines to power plants across the state. Features: * This locomotive is DCC friendly and requires minimal detail parts assembly in the form of front safety railings and number boards to be

In the early years of Amtrak service, when the Santa Fe was transitioning to a freight-only business, Amtrak was reliant on leased motive power for pulling its trains. New $68.04 (24% off). The Santa Fe, wanting to differentiate their equipment that was to be used on the new Amtrak trains, began repainting the F7's destined for Amtrak use in a new "Yellow bonnet" scheme. Few locomotives received this scheme, their service on Amtrak was brief, and many of these Yellow bonnets were returned to the Santa Fe for freight use after 1973. Features: * Directional headlights and illuminated number boards. * Powerful five pole motor with all wheel electrical pickup and blackened wheels. * Fully automatic m
