Product Overview

Class One Model Works brings modern BNSF diesel power to HO scale with this highly detailed EMD GP40-2R 1A3 release. Road number 3001 captures the look of a rebuilt BNSF road switcher operating from the mid-2010s to the present, complete with Heritage 4 paint, contemporary lighting, antenna packages, and numerous railroad-specific body modifications.

BNSF GP40-2R

These locomotives received updated electronics, modified pilots, modern lighting packages, and railroad-specific appliances that gave them a distinctive appearance compared to earlier GP40-2s. Road number 3001 stands out with its low-clearance pilot step wells, Heritage 4 paint scheme, cab-mounted headlight arrangement, antenna package, and detailed BNSF-specific pilot and underframe features.
