Following the highly successful GP38 and GP40 models, the GP39 brings the same high-end, road-specific details with a powerful motor and those razor-sharp graphics you’re accustomed to from us.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe EMD GP39 locomotive was unique in that it featured a 12-cylinder, turbocharged 645E3 prime mover — 4 less than its GP38 cousin. The largest purchaser of the GP39 was the Chesapeake \u0026amp; Ohio, ordering 20 locomotives. Upon the Chessie and Seaboard merger, the GP39s continued in local and yard service for CSX Transportation. While some locomotives and slugs would wear a variety of patchout or early CSX Y schemes, most of the fleet was repainted into the YN2 scheme and eventually the current YN3 scheme.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFEATURES:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRoad-specific details for each model\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRapido’s innovative dead straight metal side handrails with plastic stanchions\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIncredible underframe detail including traction motor cables, air filters and a whopping amount of separately applied parts\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRoad-specific battery box doors\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSeparate metal grab irons and handrails installed at the factory\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOperating headlights, rear lights, white class lights, ditch lights and beacons (where appropriate).\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHighly detailed cab interior\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCorrect fuel tank sizes per road number\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMultiple styles of stepwells\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSee-through, etched steps\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePowered SWMT Slug — a first in plastic!\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSeparately applied wire grabs\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCannon and Company licensed fans\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMultiple dynamic-brake hatches and air filters\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDC\/Silent (21-pin DCC Ready) or DC\/DCC\/ESU LokSound\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMoPower capacitor system for uninterrupted DCC power\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eNote: All renders and preliminary artwork are subject to revisions before production.
