O BTO N&W LEGACY GP9 #512
Norfolk & Western LEGACY GP9 #512
Once as common on the rails as ES44s are today, the
GP9 found a home on railroads large and small across
America. Efficient and versatile, the GP9s were “steam
killers” just about everywhere they went. The locomotive
was universally accepted but also had many options
to suit unique operating requirements. The GP9 was
so reliable that hundreds enjoyed 40+ year careers,
rebuild programs, sale and resale. Many are still working
hard today!
Lionel’s latest release of GP9s includes a few popular
returning road names and some new ones! Featuring
deco schemes from the 1950s to the 1980s, this class shows
the GP9’s range of abilities. You’ll find our GP9 as useful
on your railroad as the prototype – but you don’t have to
retire your steam to get one!
