GP30 Diesel Locomotive Stands Proud

GP30 Diesel Locomotive in Chicago Burlington & Quincy markings.

The GP30 was first released in 1961 to compete against General Electric’s “U-boat” locomotive series, and it was among the first of the second generation diesel locomotive designs. This Life-Like Proto 2000 HO scale locomotive is one of the finest GP30 models ever released. It features a finely detailed body with hand-applied details, directional lighting, detailed cab figure, a 5-pole skew wound motor with dual flywheels for flawless performance and authentic Chicago, Burlington & Quincy markings. Model measures 7″ in length.
